Since this item covers the entire gamut of events, I wouldn't be
surprised if there are some events defined with negative returns and
some with positive returns.  Anyway, an audit of all the returns is more
than I want to do just for this patch (and I did a quick look through in
the kernel to see if the answer to this is easy to get to and
unfortunately it's not because of how many places you need to track down
the treatment of the status item), so I'll apply it as is.
