This function is supposed to return zero for success or negative error
code on failure.  Unfortunately the "retval" is declared as unsigned int
and the function returns type long.  That means that on 64 bit systems
it will return positive values on error.

Fixes: 909d145f0dec ("mwave: ioctl BKL pushdown")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

The Fixes tag is sort of debatable.  "retval" should have always been
declared as an int.  But the BKL change is when the return type for
the ioctl changed from int to long, so it's when the bug started to
affect user space.
