It scares me when you talk about being consistent with the existing
code...  Just do it the correct way.

1) Don't do the "return ret;" if you know ret is zero.

2) Replace:
	ret = vmbus_sendpacket(...);

	return ret;
   with
  	return vmbus_sendpacket(...);

3) Don't do "goto cleanup;" when "return ret;" will suffice.  The
   do-nothing goto is misleading because you assume it will cleanup
   somthing.  Some people used to misread CodingStyle to think that all
   functions should only have one return but I have updated it so it is
   more clear.
