If the call to btrfs_dev_replace_by_ioctl() failed we would overwrite the
error returned to user space with -EFAULT if the call to copy_to_user()
failed as well. Fix that by calling copy_to_user() only if no error
happened before.

Its the same thing here too.. we copy ret to args->result even
if it fails. Now with this patch, if ret is non-zero, its not
in args->result at the userland anymore. If there
is any tool which just checks args->result will be at problem,
which I think is rare, should be ok. It would have been nice
to have this design as in this patch, in the original code.
------
530 ret = btrfs_dev_replace_start(fs_info,
args->start.tgtdev_name,
531 args->start.srcdevid,
532 args->start.srcdev_name,
533
args->start.cont_reading_from_srcdev_mode);
534 args->result = ret;
--------
ret = -EFAULT;
out:
kfree(p);
