Subject: [PATCH] virFileResolveLink: fix return value

virFileResolveLink was returning a positive value on error,
thus confusing callers that assumed failure was < 0.  The
confusion is further evidenced by callers that would have
ended up calling virReportSystemError with a negative value
instead of a valid errno.

Fixes Red Hat BZ #591363.

* src/util/util.c (virFileResolveLink): Live up to documentation.
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c
(qemuSecurityDACRestoreSecurityFileLabel): Adjust callers.
* src/security/security_selinux.c
(SELinuxRestoreSecurityFileLabel): Likewise.
* src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c
(virStorageBackendDiskDeleteVol): Likewise.
