uio: make import_iovec()/compat_import_iovec() return bytes on success
Currently these functions return < 0 on error, and 0 for success. Change that so that we return < 0 on error, but number of bytes for success. Some callers already treat the return value that way, others need a slight tweak. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
