[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 15/16] driver core: bus: Return -EIO instead of 0 when show/store invalid bus attribute

[Sasha Levin]

From: Zijun Hu <quic_zijuhu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c0fd973c108cdc22a384854bc4b3e288a9717bb2 ]

Return -EIO instead of 0 for below erroneous bus attribute operations:
 - read a bus attribute without show().
 - write a bus attribute without store().
