Subject: [PATCH 4.4 027/162] rtc: max8997: Fix the returned value in case of error in max8997_rtc_read_alarm()

From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@...adoo.fr>

[ Upstream commit 41ef3878203cd9218d92eaa07df4b85a2cb128fb ]

In case of error, we return 0.
This is spurious and not consistent with the other functions of the driver.
Propagate the error code instead.
