commit 8953fd41e6ca1342ca798f8b030dc16ecbe3d61d

    util/event_notifier: fix error handling for event_notifier_init callers

    Check return value of event_notifier_init() and return early on
    failure instead of continuing with invalid state.
    - Use ret < 0 to handle negative return value.
    - No functional changes.
