[PATCH v2 5/5] x86/mce/mce-inject: Return error code to userspace from mce-inject module

[Smita Koralahalli]

Currently, the mce-inject module fails silently and user must look for
kernel logs to determine if the injection has succeeded.

Save time for the user and return error code from the module with
appropriate error statements if error injection fails.
