Subject: [PATCH 3.8-stable] esp4: fix error return code in esp_output()

This patch looks like it should be in the 3.8-stable tree, should we apply
it?

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

From: "Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@...ndmicro.com.cn>"

commit 06848c10f720cbc20e3b784c0df24930b7304b93 upstream

Fix to return a negative error code from the error handling
case instead of 0, as returned elsewhere in this function.
