[PATCH] fs: Fix can_lseek_backward()

To quote corresponding man page:

"... Upon successful completion, lseek() returns the resulting offset
location as measured in bytes from the beginning of the file."

Which for lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_SET) would be 0, so returning 'ret' as
final step of the function would mean it'd never return anything but 0
as well. Change the code to explicitly return '1' to fix the problem.

Fixes: 7c3f8d366 ("uimage: fix: add can_lseek_backward and use in uimage_open")

Sascha:

This change should probably also go to master, since without enabling
TFTP would break 'bootm' for uImages (at least it does on my setup)

Thanks,
Andrey Smirnov
