[PATCH v2 1/4] fs: cramfs: don't ignore decompression errors

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

cramfs_uncompress_block() returns -EIO when a block fails to
decompress, but cramfs_read_file() stores that in a size_t, so its
check for an error, curr_block_len <= 0, only catches empty blocks.
The error becomes a block length of nearly SIZE_MAX: the read copies
whatever priv->buf holds, the previous block or nothing that was ever
written, returns it as success, and keeps it cached as the content of
the failed block.

Store the length in an int, so that the error ends the read.

Fixes: b42f481fa4 ("reactivate cramfs")
