Thorsten Blum d14eb26f87 hv: utils: handle and propagate errors in kvp_register
[ Upstream commit 3fcf923302a8f5c0dc3af3d2ca2657cb5fae4297 ]

Make kvp_register() return an error code instead of silently ignoring
failures, and propagate the error from kvp_handle_handshake() instead of
returning success.

This propagates both kzalloc_obj() and hvutil_transport_send() failures
to kvp_handle_handshake() and thus to kvp_on_msg().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
