ipv6: fix error handling in disable_policy sysctl

Browse Source 
When writing to the disable_policy sysctl, if proc_dointvec() fails to
parse the input, it returns a negative error code. The current
implementation is resetting the position argument even if an error
occurred during proc_dointvec() and not only during sysctl restart.

Fix this by checking the return value of proc_dointvec() and returning
early on failure.
