Negative values should be return for errors.

It also helps with GCC false-positives:
../block/blkio.c: In function ‘blkio_co_getlength’:
../block/blkio.c:943:8: error: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  943 |     if (ret < 0) {
      |        ^

Fixes: fd66dbd424 ("blkio: add libblkio block driver")
