Usually we are expecting real eeror codes.
Hmm, I just copied it from arch/powerpc/kernel/pci-common.c. The
function interface expects an integer returned value, not sure what a
real error codes look like, could you give more hints? Will change
accordingly.
I briefly looked at the code and error codes we have, so, my proposal
is one of the following
 - use -ECANCELED (not the best choice for first occurrence here,
though I can't find better)
 - use positive integers (or enum), like
  #define RES_REPARENTED 0
  #define RES_OVERLAPPED 1
  #define RES_NOCONFLICT 2

Ditto.
