From: Andrey Borzenkov <arvidjaar@...l.ru>

As reported by Dick Gevers on Compaq ProLiant:

Oct 13 18:06:51 dvgcpl kernel: Compaq SMART2 Driver (v 2.6.0)
Oct 13 18:06:51 dvgcpl kernel: sys_init_module: 'cpqarray'->init
suspiciously returned 1, it should follow 0/-E convention
Oct 13 18:06:51 dvgcpl kernel: sys_init_module: loading module anyway...

Make it return 0 on success and -ENODEV if no array was found.
