[PATCH] irq/proc: throw error number when irq_set_affinity fails in write_irq_affinity()

[Wen Yang]

When irq_set_affinity() fails in write_irq_affinity(), it'll not throw error number like,
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197795

This patch should fix that.

genirq/proc: Return proper error code when irq_set_affinity() fails

write_irq_affinity() returns the number of written bytes, which means
success, unconditionally whether the actual irq_set_affinity() call
succeeded or not.

Add proper error handling and pass the error code returned from
irq_set_affinity() back to user space in case of failure.
