[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: correctly report gpu recover status

[Quan, Evan]

Hi Christian,

Here is some background for this change:
I'm debugging a random failure issue on baco reset.
I used a while loop to run the continuous baco reset tests and hope it can exit immediately on failure occurred.
However, due to wrong return value, it did not. And as you can image, the failure scene was ruined.

I can add this "seq_printf(m, "gpu recover %d\n", r);".
But still what I care more(which is also the easiest way to me) is the correct return value of the API.

Regards,
Evan
