[ Upstream commit ed85891a276edaf7a867de0e9acd0837bc3008f2 ]
When a WMI device besides the first one somehow fails to register,
retval is returned while still containing a negative error code. This
causes the ACPI device fail to probe, leaving behind zombie WMI devices
leading to various errors later.
Handle the single error path separately and return 0 unconditionally
after trying to register all WMI devices to solve the issue. Also
continue to register WMI devices even if some fail to allocate memory.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
