Peter Zijlstra 0340a6b7fb module: Fix up module_notifier return values
While auditing all module notifiers I noticed a whole bunch of fail
wrt the return value. Notifiers have a 'special' return semantics.

As is; NOTIFY_DONE vs NOTIFY_OK is a bit vague; but
notifier_from_errno(0) results in NOTIFY_OK and NOTIFY_DONE has a
comment that says "Don't care".

From this I've used NOTIFY_DONE when the function completely ignores
the callback and notifier_to_error() isn't used.

README

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.
