Cortland Setlow pointed out a bug in ov7670.c where the result from
ov7670_read() was just being checked for !0, rather than <0.  This
made me realize that ov7670_read's semantics were rather confusing;
it both fills in 'value' with the result, and returns it.  This is
goes against general kernel convention; so rather than fixing callers,
let's fix the function.

This makes ov7670_read return <0 in the case of an error, and 0 upon
success. Thus, code like:

res = ov7670_read(...);
if (!res)
	goto error;

..will work properly.
