Commit 4dee62b1b9b4 ("netfilter: nf_ct_expect: nf_ct_expect_insert()
returns void") inadvertently changed the successful return value of
nf_ct_expect_related_report() from 0 to 1 due to
__nf_ct_expect_check() returning 1 on success.  Prevent this
regression in the future by changing the return value of
__nf_ct_expect_check() to 0 on success.

We used to return 0 via __nf_ct_expect_check() in the past, not
anymore for a while. So even if this doesn't fix anything, I'm fine
with this change to prevent more sloppy updates on this code.

Applied, thanks.
