Subject: [PATCH 5.4 037/203] s390/qeth: fix initialization on old HW

From: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@...ux.ibm.com>

commit 0b698c838e84149b690c7e979f78cccb6f8aa4b9 upstream.

I stumbled over an old OSA model that claims to support DIAG_ASSIST,
but then rejects the cmd to query its DIAG capabilities.

In the old code this was ok, as the returned raw error code was > 0.
Now that we translate the raw codes to errnos, the "rc < 0" causes us
to fail the initialization of the device.

The fix is trivial: don't bail out when the DIAG query fails. Such an
error is not critical, we can still use the device (with a slightly
reduced set of features).
