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.
