Subject: [PATCH] lscpu: dmi: return 0 when something fails

There is weird mix of logic in lscpu-dmi.c which sometimes returns 0 and
sometimes -1 on error. Since most checks are if (rc) goto done; this
bails out early on error skipping some detection methods. Further, in
lscpu.c all following detections are guarder by if(hyper) so returnning
-1 causes all following methods to be skipped.

Some users observe that they are running under hypervisor and this is
not detected so it is probably good idea to just try everything.

On the other hand, some users reported in the past that the wrong
detection method crashed their system so there is potential for
regression.
