arm64: ptrace: fix compat reg getter/setter return values

Browse source 
copy_{to,from}_user return the number of bytes remaining on failure, not
an error code.

This patch returns -EFAULT when the copy operation didn't complete,
rather than expose the number of bytes not copied directly to userspace.
