eeepc-laptop: simplify parse_arg()

parse_arg() has three possible return values:
    -EINVAL if sscanf(), in short, fails;
    zero if "count" is zero; and
    "count" in all other cases

But "count" will never be zero. See, parse_arg() is called by the
various store functions. And the callchain of these functions starts
with sysfs_kf_write(). And that function checks for a zero "count". So
we can stop checking for a zero "count", drop the "count" argument
entirely, and transform parse_arg() into a function that returns zero on
success or a negative error. That, in turn, allows to make those store
functions just return "count" on success. The net effect is that the
code becomes a bit easier to understand.

A nice side effect is that this GCC warning is silenced too:
    drivers/platform/x86/eeepc-laptop.c: In function ‘store_sys_acpi’:
    drivers/platform/x86/eeepc-laptop.c:279:10: warning: ‘value’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
      int rv, value;

Which is, of course, the reason to have a look at parse_arg().
