[PATCH v2 03/10] mtd: powernv_flash: Don't treat OPAL_SUCCESS as an error

While this driver expects to interact asynchronously, OPAL is well
within its rights to return OPAL_SUCCESS to indicate that the operation
completed without the need for a callback. We shouldn't treat
OPAL_SUCCESS as an error rather we should wrap up and return promptly to
the caller.

I'll note here that currently no OPAL exists that will return
OPAL_SUCCESS so there isn't the possibility of a bug today.
