The return value of function sec_firmware_support_psci_version() may 
need some work. It has three results

Positive numbers mean success (presuming bit 31 is not used by major 
number. Need to check with PPA code)
Zero means image is not valid
Negative numbers means errors

If the error code doesn't include -EINVAL, you can return -EINVAL in 
case of an invalid image. Then you can have 
sec_firmware_support_psci_version() return int.
