The simple attribute files do not accept a negative value since the
commit 488dac0c9237 ("libfs: fix error cast of negative value in
simple_attr_write()"), so we have to use a 64-bit value to write a
negative value for a debugfs file created by debugfs_create_atomic_t().
This restores the previous behaviour by introducing
DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE_SIGNED for a signed value.
Fixes: 488dac0c9237 ("libfs: fix error cast of negative value in simple_attr_write()")
