net/vmxnet3: return 1 on device activation failure
When reading device status, 0 means device is successfully activated and 1 means error. This behavior can be observed by the following steps: 1) run a Linux distro on esxi server (5.5+) 2) modify vmxnet3 Linux driver to give it an invalid address to 'adapter->shared_pa' which is the shared memory for guest/host communication This will trigger device activation failure and kernel log will have the following message: [ 7138.403256] vmxnet3 0000:03:00.0 eth1: Failed to activate dev: error 1 So return 1 on device activation failure instead of -1; Signed-off-by: Miao Yan <yanmiaobest@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Dmitry Fleytman <dmitry@daynix.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>
