[PATCH RESEND 5/5] cachefiles: correct the return value of cachefiles_check_auxdata()

[libaokun]

From: Baokun Li <libaokun1@xxxxxxxxxx>

Pass the error code to ret when xlen < 0 to avoid misleading the caller.

Fixes: 72b957856b0c ("cachefiles: Implement metadata/coherency data storage in xattrs")
