Subject: [PATCH 2/2] rcutorture: Fix rcu_barrier successes counter

From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@...lfernandes.org>

rcutorture currently increments both successes and error counters for
the rcu_barrier test incase of errors. It should only increment the
error counter incase of errors so make it do so.

Test: Introduced rcu_barrier errors by returning from the barrier
callback without incrementing the callback counter.
