[PATCH] i2c: make sure i2c_master_send/recv return negative error codes

From: Dmitry Torokhov
Date: Sat Apr 01 2017 - 13:54:58 EST


There is theoretical possibility that i2c_master_send() and
i2c_master_recv() may return non-negative result on error: we pass
return values from i2c_xfer() unmodified to the caller, unless we
transferred exactly 1 message. Let's ensure we always return negative on
error.
