Commit 151e887d8f ("veth: Fixing transmit return status for dropped
packets") exposed the fact that bpf_clone_redirect is capable of
returning raw NET_XMIT_XXX return codes.
This is in the conflict with its UAPI doc which says the following:
"0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure."
Update the UAPI to reflect the fact that bpf_clone_redirect can
return positive error numbers, but don't explicitly define
their meaning.

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.
