What I'm suggesting is that the only valid return value should be
indicative of a failure. If you're coming back to the guest after a
SYSTEM_OFF or a SYSTEM_RESET, it means you've failed to perform the
operation.

So userspace either should report the failure (by putting it in x0), and
there is no need to pre-load x0 with SUCCESS, or you start by storing
FAILURE in x0, before exiting to userspace.
