Subject: comment for forget_pte

Hi. The kernelnewbies list didn't answer, so I'm asking here. It's
not a big deal, but it might be a little documentation bug.
---------------
What is the meaning of the comment above forget_pte? It's a void
function, so there's no value returned.
/*
* Return indicates whether a page was freed so caller can adjust rss
*/
static inline void forget_pte(pte_t page)
{
if (!pte_none(page)) {
printk("forget_pte: old mapping existed!\n");
BUG();
}
}
