[media] firedtv: change some -EFAULT returns to more fitting error codes

This concerns only the CI (CAM) related code of firedtv of which I know
little. Let's just pass through the error returns of lower level I/O
code where applicable, and -EACCES (permission denied) when a seemingly
valid but negative FCP response or an unknown-to-firedtv CA message is
received.
