[PATCH 6/6] x86/alternatives: remove text_poke() return value

[Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>]

The return value of text_poke() is meaningless - it is one of the
function inputs. One day someone may allow the callers to deal with
text_poke() failures, if those actually happen.

In the meanwhile, remove the return value.
