__generic_file_write_iter: keep ->ki_pos and return value consistent A side effect worth noting: in O_APPEND case we set ->ki_pos early, so if it turns out to be an error or a zero-length write, we'll end up with ->ki_pos modified. Safe, since all callers never look at the ->ki_pos after the call of __generic_file_write_iter() returning non-positive, all the way to caller of ->write_iter() and those discard ->ki_pos when getting that.
