Subject[patch] ACPI / sysfs: fix error code in get_status()
The problem with ornamental, do-nothing gotos is that they lead to
"forgot to set the error code" bugs. We should be returning -EINVAL
here but we don't. It leads to an uninitalized variable in
counter_show():

drivers/acpi/sysfs.c:603 counter_show()
error: uninitialized symbol 'status'.

Fixes: 1c8fce27e275 ('ACPI: introduce drivers/acpi/sysfs.c')
