Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.9 090/219] braille-console: Fix value returned by _braille_console_setup
Date
From: Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org>

[ Upstream commit 2ed2b8621be2708c0f6d61fe9841e9ad8b9753f0 ]

commit bbeddf52adc1 ("printk: move braille console support into
separate braille.[ch] files") introduced _braille_console_setup()
to outline the braille initialization code. There was however some
confusion over the value it was supposed to return. commit 2cfe6c4ac7ee
("printk: Fix return of braille_register_console()") tried to fix it
but failed to.

This fixes and documents the returned value according to the use
in printk.c: non-zero return means a parsing error, and thus this
console configuration should be ignored.
