Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0673/1017] dma-debug: fix return value of __setup handlers

From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@...radead.org>

[ Upstream commit 80e4390981618e290616dbd06ea190d4576f219d ]

When valid kernel command line parameters
  dma_debug=off dma_debug_entries=100
are used, they are reported as Unknown parameters and added to init's
environment strings, polluting it.

  Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5
    dma_debug=off dma_debug_entries=100", will be passed to user space.

and

 Run /sbin/init as init process
   with arguments:
     /sbin/init
   with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5
     dma_debug=off
     dma_debug_entries=100

Return 1 from these __setup handlers to indicate that the command line
option has been handled.
