Staging: comedi: Fix unsigned return type

In each case, the function has an unsigned return type, but returns a
negative constant to indicate an error condition.  For move_block_from_dma,
there is only one call and the return value is dropped, so it need not be
unsigned.  For labpc_eeprom_write, there is only one call and the result is
stored in a signed variable, so again the unsigned return type is not
necessary.

A sematic match that finds this problem is as follows:

// <smpl>
@exists@
identifier f;
constant C;
@@

 unsigned f(...)
 { <+...
*  return -C;
 ...+> }
// </smpl>
