mm/mmap: return 1 from stack_guard_gap __setup() handler
commit e6d094936988910ce6e8197570f2753898830081 upstream. __setup() handlers should return 1 if the command line option is handled and 0 if not (or maybe never return 0; it just pollutes init's environment). This prevents: Unknown kernel command line parameters \ "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5 stack_guard_gap=100", 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-517rc5 stack_guard_gap=100 Return 1 to indicate that the boot option has been handled. Note that there is no warning message if someone enters: stack_guard_gap=anything_invalid and 'val' and stack_guard_gap are both set to 0 due to the use of simple_strtoul(). This could be improved by using kstrtoxxx() and checking for an error. It appears that having stack_guard_gap == 0 is valid (if unexpected) since using "stack_guard_gap=0" on the kernel command line does that.
