Subject: [PATCH v2] nvmet-file: fix nvmet_file_flush() always returning an error

Presently, nvmet_file_flush() always returns a call to
errno_to_nvme_status() but that helper doesn't take into account the
case when errno=0. So nvmet_file_flush() always returns an error code.

All other callers of errno_to_nvme_status() check for success before
calling it.

To fix this, ensure errno_to_nvme_status() returns success if the
errno is zero. This should prevent future mistakes like this from
happening.

Thanks for the fix Logan, errno_to_nvme_status() needs to be only called
in the case of error. Clearly bad example of calling function withing
function.

Looks good to me.
