syncop: Change return value of syncop

Problem:
We found a day-1 bug when syncop_xxx() infra is used inside a synctask with
compilation optimization (CFLAGS -O2).

Detailed explanation of the Root cause:
We found the bug in 'gf_defrag_migrate_data' in rebalance operation:

Lets look at interesting parts of the function:

int
gf_defrag_migrate_data (xlator_t *this, gf_defrag_info_t *defrag, loc_t *loc,
                        dict_t *migrate_data)
{
.....
code section - [ Loop ]
        while ((ret = syncop_readdirp (this, fd, 131072, offset, NULL,
                                       &entries)) != 0) {
.....
code section - [ ERRNO-1 ] (errno of readdirp is stored in readdir_operrno by a
thread)
                /* Need to keep track of ENOENT errno, that means, there is no
                   need to send more readdirp() */
                readdir_operrno = errno;
.....
code section - [ SYNCOP-1 ] (syncop_getxattr is called by a thread)
                        ret = syncop_getxattr (this, &entry_loc, &dict,
                                               GF_XATTR_LINKINFO_KEY);
code section - [ ERRNO-2]   (checking for failures of syncop_getxattr(). This
may not always be executed in same thread which executed [SYNCOP-1])
                        if (ret < 0) {
                                if (errno != ENODATA) {
                                        loglevel = GF_LOG_ERROR;
                                        defrag->total_failures += 1;
.....
}

the function above could be executed by thread(t1) till [SYNCOP-1] and code
from [ERRNO-2] can be executed by a different thread(t2) because of the way
syncop-infra schedules the tasks.

when the code is compiled with -O2 optimization this is the assembly code that
is generated:
 [ERRNO-1]
1165                        readdir_operrno = errno; <<---- errno gets expanded
as *(__errno_location())
   0x00007fd149d48b60 <+496>:        callq  0x7fd149d410c0 <address@hidden>
   0x00007fd149d48b72 <+514>:        mov    %rax,0x50(%rsp) <<------ Address
returned by __errno_location() is stored in a special location in stack for
later use.
   0x00007fd149d48b77 <+519>:        mov    (%rax),%eax
   0x00007fd149d48b79 <+521>:        mov    %eax,0x78(%rsp)
....
 [ERRNO-2]
1281                                        if (errno != ENODATA) {
   0x00007fd149d492ae <+2366>:        mov    0x50(%rsp),%rax <<-----  Because
it already stored the address returned by __errno_location(), it just
dereferences the address to get the errno value. BUT THIS CODE NEED NOT BE
EXECUTED BY SAME THREAD!!!
   0x00007fd149d492b3 <+2371>:        mov    $0x9,%ebp
   0x00007fd149d492b8 <+2376>:        mov    (%rax),%edi
   0x00007fd149d492ba <+2378>:        cmp    $0x3d,%edi

The problem is that __errno_location() value of t1 and t2 are different. So
[ERRNO-2] ends up reading errno of t1 instead of errno of t2 even though t2 is
executing [ERRNO-2] code section.

When code is compiled without any optimization for [ERRNO-2]:
1281                                        if (errno != ENODATA) {
   0x00007fd58e7a326f <+2237>:        callq  0x7fd58e797300
<address@hidden><<--- As it is calling __errno_location() again it gets the
location from t2 so it works as intended.
   0x00007fd58e7a3274 <+2242>:        mov    (%rax),%eax
   0x00007fd58e7a3276 <+2244>:        cmp    $0x3d,%eax
   0x00007fd58e7a3279 <+2247>:        je     0x7fd58e7a32a1
<gf_defrag_migrate_data+2287>

Fix:
Make syncop_xxx() return (-errno) value as the return value in
case of errors and all the functions which make syncop_xxx() will need to use
(-ret) to figure out the reason for failure in case of syncop_xxx() failures.
