[U-Boot] [PATCH] fs: ext4: fix symlink read function

Since last API changes for files >2GB, the read of symlink is broken as
ext4fs_read_file now returns 0 instead of the length of the actual read.

Hi all,
Switching from an old v2014.07 to v2015.07 we've noticed that we couldn't
read symlinks any more. This is due to the API changes made to
ext4fs_read_file (commit 9f12cd0).
This patch makes the read symlink check both for errors (status < 0) and
actual read length.
Regards,
Gary
