答复: [PATCH V2] staging: r8188eu: Directly return _SUCCESS instead of using local ret variable

[白浩文 <baihaowen@meizu.com>]

Hi, Greg KH

Yes, I think sync rtl8723bs and r8188eu will be better as they have same problem.

commit 067756acdac8e0dd91edf4800e844fcb6e0cc72a
Author: Hariprasad Kelam <hariprasad.kelam@gmail.com>

    staging: rtl8723bs: core: Change return type of init_mlme_ext_priv

    As init_mlme_ext_priv function always returns SUCCESS , We can change
    return type from int to void.

    Fixes below issue identified by coccicheck
    drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c:464:5-8: Unneeded
    variable: "res". Return "_SUCCESS" on line 492

If a function can only ever succeed, why return anything?  Please make
this a function return void.
