From: Johan Hovold johan@kernel.org Date: Fri, 3 Nov 2017 15:18:05 +0100 Subject: tty: fix tty_ldisc_receive_buf() documentation

From: Johan Hovold johan@kernel.org

commit e7e51dcf3b8a5f65c5653a054ad57eb2492a90d0 upstream.

The tty_ldisc_receive_buf() helper returns the number of bytes processed so drop the bogus "not" from the kernel doc comment.
