Switch from returning -1 to -errno so that callers can determine types of failure.
Hi Sasha,
This change requires changes in the perf tool. The issue is the -1 gets written to perf.data files in the topology, the -errno value is "corrupt." Because of this, I'd suggest not backporting this change.
Agreed. Please remove this patch from the all stable series.
Thanks, Namhyung
