Andy Shevchenko bb72e3981d console: Avoid positive return code from unregister_console()
There are only two callers that use the returned code from
unregister_console():

  - unregister_early_console() in arch/m68k/kernel/early_printk.c
  - kgdb_unregister_nmi_console() in drivers/tty/serial/kgdb_nmi.c

They both expect to get "0" on success and a non-zero value on error.
But the current behavior is confusing and buggy:

  - _braille_unregister_console() returns "1" on success
  - unregister_console() returns "1" on error

Fix and clean up the behavior:

  - Return success when _braille_unregister_console() succeeded
  - Return a meaningful error code when the console was
    not registered before

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
