target: Fix >= v3.9+ regression in PR APTPL + ALUA metadata write-out

This patch fixes a >= v3.9+ regression in __core_scsi3_write_aptpl_to_file()
+ core_alua_write_tpg_metadata() write-out, where a return value of -EIO was
incorrectly being returned upon success.

This bug was originally introduced in:

commit 0e9b10a90f1c30f25dd6f130130240745ab14010
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date: Sat Feb 23 15:22:43 2013 -0500

target: writev() on single-element vector is pointless

However, given that the return of core_scsi3_update_and_write_aptpl()
was not used to determine if a command should be returned with non GOOD
status, this bug was not being triggered in PR logic until v3.11-rc1 by
commit:

commit 459f213ba162bd13e113d6f92a8fa6c780fd67ed
Author: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com>
Date: Thu May 16 10:41:02 2013 -0700

target: Allocate aptpl_buf inside update_and_write_aptpl()

So, go ahead and only return -EIO if kernel_write() returned a
negative value.

target: Return error to initiator if SET TARGET PORT GROUPS emulation fails

The error paths in target_emulate_set_target_port_groups() are all
essentially "rc = -EINVAL; goto out;" but the code at "out:" ignores
rc and always returns success. This means that even if eg explicit
ALUA is turned off, the initiator will always see a good SCSI status
for SET TARGET PORT GROUPS.

Fix this by returning rc as is intended. It appears this bug was
added by the following patch:

target: Add MI_REPORT_TARGET_PGS ext. header + implict_trans_secs attribute

This patch adds support for ALUA MI_REPORT_TARGET_PGS extended header
format defined within SPC-4. It changes target core ALUA emulation logic
within target_emulate_report_target_port_groups() to support both the
extended and original length only header formats.

It includes adding a new 'implict_trans_secs' attribute for each ALUA
target port group to control the value returned to the application client
for an recommended implict translation timeout in seconds. By default
this value is currently set to zero, and limited up to 255 by virtue of
using a single byte in the extended header format.

This value is used by target_emulate_report_target_port_groups() within
the extended header logic to set IMPLICIT TRANSITION TIME as defined by
spc4r30.
