driver core: dd: fix return value of __setup handler
When "driver_async_probe=nulltty" is used on the kernel boot command line, it causes an Unknown parameter message and the string is added to init's environment strings, polluting them. Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 driver_async_probe=nulltty", will be passed to user space. Run /sbin/init as init process with arguments: /sbin/init with environment: HOME=/ TERM=linux BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 driver_async_probe=nulltty Change the return value of the __setup function to 1 to indicate that the __setup option has been handled.
