Remove panic-on-error from IPL ISO El Torito specific functions so that error
recovery may be possible in the future.

Functions that would previously panic now provide a return code.

Either I need more coffee or one of the two if-conditions is wrong...?

That "!" looks wrong here? Or do I misunderstood the original IPL_assert() condition?


Basically all of the IPL_assert() conditions become logically flipped, but it is
intended. IPL_assert() panics if success condition is NOT met, but in the new
version an error code is returned if an failure condition IS met, so we are
branching on the inverse condition.

Why is one of the two if-statements using a "!" and why is one without it?

Any reasons for switching from read_iso_sector() directly to virtio_read() here?

I think this is just an oversight on my part.  I had thought to remove the
read_iso_sector() function entirely since it is just a wrapper for
virtio_read() that becomes redundant once the panic is removed, but it looks
like I wasn't consistent with where I removed it.  In my opinion we can remove
read_iso_sector() and just call virtio_read(), but either way it should be
consistent, so I will standardize the calls.  I don't see any compelling reason
to keep the read_iso_sector() function since all it is doing is checking the
RC of virtio_read(), which we will want to check anyway to determine if we need
to abort the IPL here.

I agree, I also don't see a compelling reason for keeping read_iso_sector() anymore.
