Randy Dunlap 5847873140 printk: fix return value of printk.devkmsg __setup handler
[ Upstream commit b665eae7a7 ]

If an invalid option value is used with "printk.devkmsg=<value>",
it is silently ignored.
If a valid option value is used, it is honored but the wrong return
value (0) is used, indicating that the command line option had an
error and was not handled. This string is not added to init's
environment strings due to init/main.c::unknown_bootoption()
checking for a '.' in the boot option string and then considering
that string to be an "Unused module parameter".

Print a warning message if a bad option string is used.
Always return 1 from the __setup handler to indicate that the command
line option has been handled.

Fixes: 750afe7bab ("printk: add kernel parameter to control writes to /dev/kmsg")
