From: Joao Martins <joao.m.martins@oracle.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-5.4 commit 5cc59f597c0666c6a7e1c67aac9063895949fd56 category: feature bugzilla: https://bugzilla.openeuler.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34 CVE: NA When a user loads cpuidle-haltpoll on a non KVM guest the module will successfully load, even though idle driver registration didn't take place. We should instead return -ENODEV signaling the user that the driver can't be loaded, like other error paths in haltpoll_init(). An example of such error paths is when we return -EBUSY when attempting to register an idle driver when it had one already (e.g. intel_idle loads at boot and then we attempt to insert module cpuidle-haltpoll).
