[PATCH] cgroup/cpuset: Fix update_prstate() always returning 0 on partition errors

[Tao Cui <cui.tao@linux.dev>]

From: Tao Cui <cuitao@kylinos.cn>

update_prstate() stores the error code in cs->prs_err and transitions
the partition to an invalid state, but always returns 0. The caller
cpuset_partition_write() uses "return retval ?: nbytes", so the write
syscall always appears to succeed from userspace even when the partition
became invalid. Return -EINVAL when err is set so userspace can detect
the failure immediately.
