efi: fix return value of __setup handlers

[ Upstream commit 9feaf8b3 ]

When "dump_apple_properties" is used on the kernel boot command line,
it causes an Unknown parameter message and the string is added to init's
argument strings:

  Unknown kernel command line parameters "dump_apple_properties
    BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 efivar_ssdt=newcpu_ssdt", will be
    passed to user space.

 Run /sbin/init as init process
   with arguments:
     /sbin/init
     dump_apple_properties
   with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6
     efivar_ssdt=newcpu_ssdt

Similarly when "efivar_ssdt=somestring" is used, it is added to the
Unknown parameter message and to init's environment strings, polluting
them (see examples above).

Change the return value of the __setup functions to 1 to indicate
that the __setup options have been handled.
