6.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Joy Chakraborty <joychakr@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 28b008751aa295612318a0fbb2f22dd4f6a83139 upstream.
reg_read() callback registered with nvmem core expects 0 on success and
a negative value on error but rmem_read() returns the number of bytes
read which is treated as an error at the nvmem core.
This does not break when rmem is accessed using sysfs via
bin_attr_nvmem_read()/write() but causes an error when accessed from
places like nvmem_access_with_keepouts(), etc.
Change to return 0 on success and error in case
memory_read_from_buffer() returns an error or -EIO if bytes read do not
match what was requested.
Fixes: 5a3fa75a4d9c ("nvmem: Add driver to expose reserved memory as nvmem")
