In efx_devlink_info_board_cfg(), the return value of devlink_info_serial_number_put() needs to be checked. This could result in silent failures if the function failed. Add error checking for efx_devlink_info_board_cfg() and propagate any errors immediately to ensure proper error handling and prevents silent failures.
