[libc] Fix memcmp() to return proper values
Fix memcmp() to return proper standard positive/negative values for
unequal comparisons. Current implementation is backwards (i.e. the
functions are returning negative when should be positive and
vice-versa).
Currently most consumers of these functions only check the return value
for ==0 or !=0 and so we can safely change the implementation without
breaking things.
However, there is one call that checks the polarity of this function,
and that is prf_sha1() for wireless WPA 4-way handshake. Due to the
incorrect memcmp() polarity, the WPA handshake creates an incorrect
PTK, and the handshake would fail after step 2. Undoubtedly, the AP
noticed the supplicant failed the mic check. This commit fixes that
issue.
Similar to commit 3946aa9 ("[libc] Fix strcmp()/strncmp() to return
proper values").
