acpi_pcc_probe calls acpi_table_parse_entries_array but fails to check
for an error return.  This in turn can result in calling kcalloc with
a negative count as well as emitting the following misleading erorr
message:

[    2.642015] Could not allocate space for PCC mbox channels

Fixes: 8f8027c5f935 ("mailbox: PCC: erroneous error message when parsing ACPI PCCT")
