cmd: exit: Fix return value propagation out of environment scripts
Make sure the 'exit' command as well as 'exit $val' command exits from environment scripts immediately and propagates return value out of those scripts fully. That means the following behavior is expected: " => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit 1' ; run foo ; echo $? bar 1 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit 0' ; run foo ; echo $? bar 0 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit -2' ; run foo ; echo $? bar 0 " As well as the followin behavior: " => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit 3 ; echo fail'; run foo; echo $? bar 3 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit 1 ; echo fail'; run foo; echo $? bar 1 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit 0 ; echo fail'; run foo; echo $? bar 0 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit -1 ; echo fail'; run foo; echo $? bar 0 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit -2 ; echo fail'; run foo; echo $? bar 0 => setenv foo 'echo bar ; exit ; echo fail'; run foo; echo $? bar 0 " Fixes: 8c4e3b79bd0 ("cmd: exit: Fix return value") Reviewed-by: Hector Palacios <hector.palacios@digi.com> Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de>

Return value
------------
-$? is always set to 0 (true).
+$? is default set to 0 (true). In case zero or positive integer parameter
+is passed to the command, the return value is the parameter value. In case
+negative integer parameter is passed to the command, the return value is 0.
