[ Upstream commit 0f6ef65d1c6ec8deb5d0f11f86631ec4cfe8f22e ]
If the provider driver (such as rdma_rxe) doesn't support pma counters,
avoid exposing its directory similar to optional hw_counters directory.
If core fails to read the PMA counter, return an error so that user can
retry later if needed.
Fixes: 35c4cbb17811 ("IB/core: Create get_perf_mad function in sysfs.c")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
