[PATCH] drm/amd/display: Fix error code on failure to set brightness

[Anand K Mistry]

The backlight_ops.update_status function is required to return a
negative error code on failure. Returning a positive code may be
interpreted as a success. This is true for the 'brightness' sysfs file,
which passes through a non-zero value as the return value of the write()
syscall. This is interpreted in user-space as a successful write of 1
character, which is obviously wrong.

It's not clear exactly what error code to use, but EINVAL should be
reasonable.
