The commit eb63f2964dbe ("udp6: add missing checks on edumux packet
processing") used the same return code convention of the ipv4 counterpart,
but ipv6 uses the opposite one: positive values means resubmit.

This change addresses the issue, using positive return value for
resubmitting. Also update the related comment, which was broken, too.

Note: I could not find any in kernel udp6 encap using the above
feature, that would explain why nobody complained so far...
