Subject: [PATCH] tty: hvc: fix return value of __setup handler

__setup() handlers should return 1 to indicate that the boot option
has been handled or 0 to indicate that it was not handled.
Add a pr_warn() message if the option value is invalid and then
always return 1.

Fixes: 86b40567b917 ("tty: replace strict_strtoul() with kstrtoul()")
