Nak. Please do not change these function return values.  They are
converted as necessary by the callers before returning to userspace, but
allow the code to distinguish between errors generated internally or from
lower networking layers.

As you will note, many of them are explicitly annotated with comments that
they are returning positive values.  The patch as it stands would totally
break the code.

Cheers, Andreas
