ntfs: return errors from ntfs_attr_readall

Browse source

ntfs_attr_readall() currently loses the failure reason for attribute
lookup, allocation, and read failures by returning NULL. Return ERR_PTR()
with the original error instead.

The reparse parser can then propagate allocation and I/O errors without
treating them as filesystem corruption.
