Subject: Drivers: hv: vmus: Fix the check for return value from kmsg get dump buffer
Git-commit: ddcaf3ca4c3c87b955ad6f57952250030be77791
References: bsc#1107207
The code to support panic control message was checking the return was
checking the return value from kmsg_dump_get_buffer as error value, which
is not what the routine returns. This fixes it.
Fixes: 81b18bce48af ("Drivers: HV: Send one page worth of kmsg dump over Hyper-V during panic")
