memory-hotplug: fix store_mem_state() return value
If store_mem_state() is called to online memory which is already online,
it will return 1, the value it got from device_online().
This is wrong because store_mem_state() is a device_attribute .store
function. Thus a non-negative return value represents input bytes read.
Set the return value to -EINVAL in this case.
