  Giving invalid or zero portmask as command line option to 
these applications will have an unexpected response.
The reason behind this is that the return value of function
that parses portmask is stored in a variable whose datatype is 
unsigned int, hence returning -1 in case of zero or
invalid portmask causes an unexpected behaviour. 
If we return 0 instead of -1 this issue can be resolved.
The program already contains the functionality to print
"invalid portmask" and program usage if zero is returned.

Why nobody reviewed? Isn't there some maintainers of example apps?

After looking at few examples, the function returns a signed int.

Yes, the caller of the function seems to expect 0 as error value.

Checked a number of the examples and all seem to behave similarly to
described. This looks a good fix.
