4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit afd0b1fb22269f48d68fdf269891c653818c8047 upstream.
acpi_pcc_probe() calls acpi_table_parse_entries_array() but fails to check for an error return. This in turn can result in calling kcalloc() with a negative count as well as emitting the following misleading erorr message:
[ 2.642015] Could not allocate space for PCC mbox channels
