[ Upstream commit 4dbe57d46d54a847875fa33e7d05877bb341585e ]
This function had some left over code that returned 1 on error instead
negative error codes. Convert everything to use negative error codes. The
caller treats all non-zero returns the same so this does not affect run
time.
A couple places set "rc" instead of "status" so those error paths ended up
returning success by mistake. Get rid of the "rc" variable and use
"status" everywhere.
Remove the bogus "status = 0" initialization, as a future proofing measure
so the compiler will warn about uninitialized error codes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
