NFC: xmit from hci ops must return 0 or negative
xmit callback provided by a driver encapsulates upper layers data and sends it to the hardware. So, HCI does not know the exact amount of data being sent and thus can't handle partially sent frames properly. Therefore, the driver must return 0 for completely sent frame or negative for failure.
