    pioctl.c: restore required result variable
    
    Commit b9fb9c62a6779aa997259ddf2a83a90b08e04d5f refactored lpioctl()
    so that LINUX would have its own implementation. This also simplified
    the other lpioctl() implementations by removing superfluous variable
    'rval'.
    
    Unfortunately, 'rval' was actually required for both DARWIN and SUN511.
    On both of these platforms, the address of 'errcode' is passed
    to the respective ioctl_*() routine so its value may be passed back
    to lpioctl().   Therefore, 'errcode' must not also be used for the
    return value from these functions;  doing so results in the return
    value from the function overwriting the intended value of 'errcode' upon
    return to lpioctl().
    
    In the case of Solaris 11, ioctl_sun_afs_syscall() always returns zero
    (as long as the ioctl device 'dev/afs' opened successfully).
    So 'errcode' was always being set to zero, even if the pioctl had
    actually failed.  For example, without this fix, 'fs listcells'
    loops forever on Solaris 11, listing an infinite number of "cells",
    because it will never "see" the EDOM that informs it of the last defined
    cell.
    
    Partially revert b9fb9c62a6779aa997259ddf2a83a90b08e04d5f by restoring
    the 'rval' variable and logic for DARWIN and SUN511.
