driver core: Flow the return code from ->probe() through to sysfs bind

Browse Source 
Currently really_probe() returns 1 on success and 0 if the probe() call
fails. This return code arrangement is designed to be useful for
__device_attach_driver() which is walking the device list and trying every
driver. 0 means to keep trying.

However, it is not useful for the other places that call through to
really_probe() that do actually want to see the probe() return code.

For instance bind_store() would be better to return the actual error code
from the driver's probe method, not discarding it and returning -ENODEV.

Reorganize things so that really_probe() returns the error code from
->probe as a (inverted) positive number, and 0 for successful attach.

With this, __device_attach_driver can ignore the (positive) probe errors,
return 1 to exit the loop for a successful binding and pass on the
other negative errors, while device_driver_attach simplify inverts the
positive errors and returns all errors to the sysfs code.
