PATCH 1/1 drivers/scsi: fix proc_scsi_write to return "length" on success with remove-single-device case

From: Suzuki <[email protected]>

proc_scsi_write doesn't return the "length" upon successfully removing a device; instead it returns 0. This causes commands like "echo" to redo the write(), which ends up in something like,

$ echo "scsi remove-single-device 0 0 3 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi
"-bash: echo: write error: No such device or address"

, even though the device was removed.

We have more than one of these cases; we might as well accommodate them all at the bottom of the routine, like the attached
