Alexey Romanov 0d423c4a78 drivers: meson: sm: correct meson_sm_* API retval handling ...

1. Following the ARM SMC32 calling convention, the return value
from secure monitor is a 32-bit signed integer. This patch changes
the type of the return value of the function meson_sm_call().

2. Now, when meson_sm_call() returns a 32-bit signed integer, we need
to ensure that this value is not negative. It is important to check
that the return value is not negative in both the meson_sm_call_read()
and meson_sm_call_write() functions.

3. Add a comment explaining why it is necessary to check if the SMC
return value is equal to 0 in the function meson_sm_call_read().
It is not obvious when reading this code.
