ARM: perf: simplify __hw_perf_event_init err handling
Currently __hw_perf_event_init has an err variable that's ignored right until the end, where it's initialised, conditionally set, and then used as a boolean flag deciding whether to return another error code. This patch removes the err variable and simplifies the associated error handling logic. Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
