niu_pci_eeprom_read() may fail, so add checks to its return value and
propagate the error up the callstack.
An examination of the callstack up to niu_pci_eeprom_read shows that:
niu_pci_eeprom_read() // returns int
niu_pci_vpd_scan_props() // returns int
niu_pci_vpd_fetch() // returns *void*
niu_get_invariants() // returns int
since niu_pci_vpd_fetch() returns void which breaks the bubbling up,
change its return type to int so that error is propagated upwards.

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.
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.
