IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT will return success even if the read
fails (I'm not sure when it'll return failure). Assume the read is
successful only when the read length is correct.
This isn't the right fix for this game, the text issue is caused due to a bug on GSdx depth test, and is not a
core issue. These rounding modes for some reason only partially alleviate the issue (https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-GSDX-Software-mode-Bug-Report-Teen-Titans-Load-Game-menu-not-displaying-text-where-it-should)
while not fully fixing it, ZeroGS on the other hand doesn't have this issue even without these rounding mode changes.
TL;DR - Issue is on GS, and it's troublesome when a GS issue is masked like this.
This reverts commit 4765770dc8.

Fixes HUD and menu display in hw/sw mode.
Original patches provided by Kozarovv, improved by Refraction.

HUD and menu display.
They will be replaced with EE patches in GameDB that work for both
software and hardware mode. A much better alternative and less GSdx
hacks.

clang and earlier GCC versions do not provide the _xgetbv intrinsic.
GCC8 does, but unfortunately it's broken.
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85684).
Re-use our _xgetbv implementation to avoid the bug, but rename it to
avoid compilation errors as well.
