commit aabe3a359197d99867abaab8a4beb42003ee7d79

    Fix return code in tls1_mac
    
    The return code from tls1_mac is supposed to be a boolean 0 for fail, 1 for
    success. In one place we returned -1 on error. This would cause code calling
    the mac function to erroneously see this as a success (because a non-zero
    value is being treated as success in all call sites).
    
    Fortunately, AFAICT, the place that returns -1 can only happen on an
    internal error so is not under attacker control. Additionally this code only
    appears in master. In 1.1.0 the return codes are treated differently.
    Therefore there are no security implications.
