NACK.

The return value of gigaset_start(), as documented in its
header comment, is:
 *	1 - success, 0 - error
Its callers rely on this. If you want to change it, you must
also change the documentation and the callers accordingly.
In its current form the patch would just break the driver.

Thanks,
Tilman
