Changes in v2:
- Remove the now-unused out_free_domain error label in the xive
  patch after deleting the unreachable NULL check goto.
- Fix a use-after-free of xive_ipis: when xive_init_ipis() fails,
  the error path frees xive_ipis but xive_smp_probe() ignores the
  error and proceeds to dereference it in xive_setup_cpu_ipi().
  Propagate the error return through xive_smp_probe() and check
  it in both pnv_smp_probe() and pSeries_smp_probe().

Applied, thanks!
