[PATCH v2] iio: dac: max5821: fix return value check in powerdown sync

[Salah Triki]

The function max5821_sync_powerdown_mode() returned the result of
i2c_master_send() directly. If a partial transfer occurred, it would
be incorrectly treated as a success by the caller.

While the caller currently handles the positive return value of 2 as
success, this patch refactors the function to return 0 on full success
and -EIO on short writes. This ensures robust error handling for
incomplete transfers and improves code maintainability by using
sizeof(outbuf).

Fixes: 472988972737 ("iio: add support of the max5821")

Changes in v2:
- Replace magic number '2' with 'sizeof(outbuf)' for better maintainability.
- Remove redundant blank line between i2c_master_send() and error check.
- Update commit message to clarify that the 'Fixes' tag is primarily for 
  handling partial transfers (short writes), as the caller already 
  handled the success case correctly.
