Subject: [PATCH 4.9 75/75] tty: fix tty_ldisc_receive_buf() documentation

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

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

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit e7e51dcf3b8a5f65c5653a054ad57eb2492a90d0 upstream.

The tty_ldisc_receive_buf() helper returns the number of bytes
processed so drop the bogus "not" from the kernel doc comment.

Fixes: 8d082cd300ab ("tty: Unify receive_buf() code paths")
