target: Fix >= v3.9+ regression in PR APTPL + ALUA metadata write-out 

This patch fixes a >= v3.9+ regression in __core_scsi3_write_aptpl_to_file()
+ core_alua_write_tpg_metadata() write-out, where a return value of -EIO was
incorrectly being returned upon success.

This bug was originally introduced in:

commit 0e9b10a90f
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date:   Sat Feb 23 15:22:43 2013 -0500

    target: writev() on single-element vector is pointless

However, given that the return of core_scsi3_update_and_write_aptpl()
was not used to determine if a command should be returned with non GOOD
status, this bug was not being triggered in PR logic until v3.11-rc1 by
commit:

commit 459f213ba1
Author: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com>
Date:   Thu May 16 10:41:02 2013 -0700

    target: Allocate aptpl_buf inside update_and_write_aptpl()

So, go ahead and only return -EIO if kernel_write() returned a
negative value.
