From: Joy Chakraborty <joychakr@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 1c184baccf0d5e2ef4cc1562261d0e48508a1c2b upstream. Read/write callbacks registered with nvmem core expect 0 to be returned on success and a negative value to be returned on failure. cmos_nvram_read()/cmos_nvram_write() currently return the number of bytes read or written, fix to return 0 on success and -EIO incase number of bytes requested was not read or written.
