    TOMOYO: fix __setup handlers return values
    
    [ Upstream commit 39844b7e3084baecef52d1498b5fa81afa2cefa9 ]
    
    __setup() handlers should return 1 if the parameter is handled.
    Returning 0 causes the entire string to be added to init's
    environment strings (limited to 32 strings), unnecessarily polluting it.
    
    Using the documented strings "TOMOYO_loader=string1" and
    "TOMOYO_trigger=string2" causes an Unknown parameter message:
      Unknown kernel command line parameters
        "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5 TOMOYO_loader=string1 \
         TOMOYO_trigger=string2", will be passed to user space.
    
    and these strings are added to init's environment string space:
      Run /sbin/init as init process
        with arguments:
         /sbin/init
        with environment:
         HOME=/
         TERM=linux
         BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5
         TOMOYO_loader=string1
         TOMOYO_trigger=string2
    
    With this change, these __setup handlers act as expected,
    and init's environment is not polluted with these strings.
