Subject: [ 13/20] USB: mct_u232: Fix incorrect TIOCMSET return

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan Cox <alan@...ux.intel.com>

commit 1aa3c63cf0a79153ee13c8f82e4eb6c40b66a161 upstream.

The low level helper returns 1 on success. The ioctl should however return
0. As this is the only user of the helper return, make the helper return 0 or
an error code.
