Kajol Jain 6d6b8b9f4f perf: Fix task_function_call() error handling
The error handling introduced by commit:

  2ed6edd33a ("perf: Add cond_resched() to task_function_call()")

looses any return value from smp_call_function_single() that is not
{0, -EINVAL}. This is a problem because it will return -EXNIO when the
target CPU is offline. Worse, in that case it'll turn into an infinite
loop.

Fixes: 2ed6edd33a ("perf: Add cond_resched() to task_function_call()")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
