Subject: ring-buffer: Return 0 on success from ring_buffer_resize()

From: Qiujun Huang <hqjagain@gmail.com>

commit 0a1754b2a97efa644aa6e84d1db5b17c42251483 upstream.

We don't need to check the new buffer size, and the return value
had confused resize_buffer_duplicate_size().
...
	ret = ring_buffer_resize(trace_buf->buffer,
		per_cpu_ptr(size_buf->data,cpu_id)->entries, cpu_id);
	if (ret == 0)
		per_cpu_ptr(trace_buf->data, cpu_id)->entries =
			per_cpu_ptr(size_buf->data, cpu_id)->entries;
...
