Subject[PATCH] Input: serio_raw - return proper result when serio_raw_read fails
Date
serio_raw_read now returns (sometimes partially) successful number of
bytes transferred to the caller, and only returns error code to the
caller on completely failed transfers.

I think serio_raw_write() and serio_raw_read() should have the same returning
value behavior.
