x86: Fix return value of __setup handlers
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 12441cc ]

__setup() handlers should return 1 to obsolete_checksetup() in
init/main.c to indicate that the boot option has been handled. A return
of 0 causes the boot option/value to be listed as an Unknown kernel
parameter and added to init's (limited) argument (no '=') or environment
(with '=') strings. So return 1 from these x86 __setup handlers.

Examples:

  Unknown kernel command line parameters "apicpmtimer
    BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc8 vdso=1 ring3mwait=disable", will be
    passed to user space.

  Run /sbin/init as init process
   with arguments:
     /sbin/init
     apicpmtimer
   with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc8
     vdso=1
     ring3mwait=disable
