x86/intel_rdt: Propagate error in rdt_mount() properly gcc complains: "warning: ‘dentry’ may be used uninitialized in this function" The error exit path in rdt_mount(), which deals with a failure in rdtgroup_create_info_dir(), does not set the error code in dentry and returns the uninitialized dentry value. Add the missing error propagation.
