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()").

This restores the previous behaviour by using newly introduced
DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE_SIGNED instead of DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE.

Fixes: 488dac0c9237 ("libfs: fix error cast of negative value in simple_attr_write()")
