Randy Dunlap 1d02b444b8 tracing: Fix return value of __setup handlers
__setup() handlers should generally return 1 to indicate that the
boot options have been handled.

Using invalid option values causes the entire kernel boot option
string to be reported as Unknown and added to init's environment
strings, polluting it.

  Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6
    kprobe_event=p,syscall_any,$arg1 trace_options=quiet
    trace_clock=jiffies", 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
     kprobe_event=p,syscall_any,$arg1
     trace_options=quiet
     trace_clock=jiffies

Return 1 from the __setup() handlers so that init's environment is not
polluted with kernel boot options.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
