Use 'return_ptr' helper for returning a pointer without cleanup for
shorter code.

No, thank you. For CXL, I am not a fan of macros with hidden 'return'
statements.

My first thought on this was that I prefer the explicitness
of pairing __free(kfree) with no_free_ptr as was done here.

cleanup.h defines this: 
#define return_ptr(p)   return no_free_ptr(p)

I did read the comments and am still confused. I see you posted a
handful of no_free_ptr to return_ptr patches. What is your selection
process for changing these?

Sure, maybe the macro is not helpful in the first place.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
