driver core: dd: fix return value of __setup handler

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit f2aad54703dbe630f9d8b235eb58e8c8cc78f37d ]

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.
