[PATCH 3/4] nvme-pci: return error when parsing a quirk string fails

[Guixin Liu]

quirks_param_set() reuses 'err', which param_set_copystring() left as 0,
as the return value of the whole function. When nvme_parse_quirk_entry()
fails to parse a field, the code jumps to out_free_qlist and returns that
stale 0, so a malformed quirks= parameter is silently accepted as valid.

Set err to -EINVAL before jumping out on a parse failure.

Fixes: 7bb8c40f5ad8 ("nvme: add support for dynamic quirk configuration via module parameter")
