Rationalize fasync return values
Most fasync implementations do something like:
return fasync_helper(...);
But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place. Thus, a number of other drivers do:
err = fasync_helper(...);
if (err < 0)
return err;
return 0;
In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.
