Subject: [PATCH 5.11 051/210] libbpf: Fix bail out from ringbuf_process_ring() on error

From: Pedro Tammela <pctammela@...il.com>

commit 6032ebb54c60cae24329f6aba3ce0c1ca8ad6abe upstream.

The current code bails out with negative and positive returns.
If the callback returns a positive return code, 'ring_buffer__consume()'
and 'ring_buffer__poll()' will return a spurious number of records
consumed, but mostly important will continue the processing loop.

This patch makes positive returns from the callback a no-op.

Fixes: bf99c936f947 ("libbpf: Add BPF ring buffer support")
