*buffer* points to a buffer of *buflen* bytes, and *data* is the
corresponding :func:`json_load_callback()` argument passed through.
- On error, the function should return ``(size_t)-1`` to abort the
- decoding process. When there's no data left, it should return 0 to
- report that the end of input has been reached.
+ On success, the function should return the number of bytes read; a
+ returned value of 0 indicates that no data was read and that the
