firmware: send -EINTR on signal abort on fallback mechanism
Right now we send -EAGAIN to a syfs write which got interrupted. Userspace can't tell what happened though, send -EINTR if we were killed due to a signal so userspace can tell things apart. This is only applicable to the fallback mechanism. Reported-by: Martin Fuzzey <mfuzzey@parkeon.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.
