pseries/papr-hvpipe: Fix the usage of copy_to_user()
copy_to_user() return bytes_not_copied to the user buffer. If there was
an error writing bytes into the user buffer, i.e. if copy_to_user
returns a non-zero value, then we should simply return -EFAULT from the
->read() call.
Otherwise, in the non-patched version, we may end up mixing
"bytes_not_copied + bytes_copied (HVPIPE_HDR_LEN)" as the return value
to the user in ->read() call
Also let's make sure we clear the hvpipe_status flag, if we have
consumed the hvpipe msg by making the rtas call. ret = -EFAULT means
copy_to_user has failed but that still means that the msg was read from
the hvpipe, hence for both cases, success & -EFAULT, we should clear the
HVPIPE_MSG_AVAILABLE flag in hvpipe_status.
