ACPI: bus: Fix handling of _OSC errors in acpi_run_osc()

The handling of _OSC errors in acpi_run_osc() is inconsistent and
arguably not compliant with the _OSC definition (cf. Section 6.2.12 of
ACPI 6.6 [1]).

Namely, if OSC_QUERY_ENABLE is not set in the capabilities buffer and
any of the error bits are set in the _OSC return buffer, acpi_run_osc()
returns an error code and the _OSC return buffer is discarded.  However,
in that case, depending on what error bits are set, the return buffer
may contain acknowledged bits for features that need to be controlled by
the kernel going forward.

If the OSC_INVALID_UUID_ERROR bit is set, the request could not be
processed at all and so in that particular case discarding the _OSC
return buffer and returning an error is the right thing to do regardless
of whether or not OSC_QUERY_ENABLE is set in the capabilities buffer.

If OSC_QUERY_ENABLE is set in the capabilities buffer and the
OSC_REQUEST_ERROR or OSC_INVALID_REVISION_ERROR bits are set in the
return buffer, acpi_run_osc() may return an error and discard the _OSC
return buffer because in that case the platform configuration does not
change.  However, if any of them is set in the return buffer when
OSC_QUERY_ENABLE is not set in the capabilities buffer, the feature
mask in the _OSC return buffer still represents a set of acknowleded
features as per the _OSC definition:

 The platform acknowledges the Capabilities Buffer by returning a
 buffer of DWORDs of the same length. Set bits indicate acknowledgment
 that OSPM may take control of the capability and cleared bits indicate
 that the platform either does not support the capability or that OSPM
 may not assume control.

which is not conditional on the error bits being clear, so in that case,
discarding the _OSC return buffer is questionable.  There is also no
reason to return an error and discard the _OSC return buffer if the
OSC_CAPABILITIES_MASK_ERROR bit is set in it, but printing diagnostic
messages is appropriate when that happens with OSC_QUERY_ENABLE clear
in the capabilities buffer.

Adress this issue by making acpi_run_osc() follow the rules outlined
above.

Moreover, make acpi_run_osc() only take the defined _OSC error bits into
account when checking _OSC errors.
