eCryptfs: Propagate vfs_read and vfs_write return codes

Errors returned from vfs_read() and vfs_write() calls to the lower
filesystem were being masked as -EINVAL.  This caused some confusion to
users who saw EINVAL instead of ENOSPC when the disk was full, for
instance.

Also, the actual bytes read or written were not accessible by callers to
ecryptfs_read_lower() and ecryptfs_write_lower(), which may be useful in
some cases.  This patch updates the error handling logic where those
functions are called in order to accept positive return codes indicating
success.
