We document that a plugin callback must return -1 on failure, and
all other places in the code treat any other value as success (the
ideal plugin returns only 0 or -1, but if some existing plugin
returns any other value, changing our reaction now might break
binary back-compatibility).  However, we missed a case: if
plugin_zero() falls back to pwrite, we were treating all negative
values as failure, even when -2 returned from directly from
pwrite is success.
