So this is not the first revision? Please add Leon's tag and an
appropriate vN. e.g. [PATCH net-next v2].

In general we don't encourage cleanup of this sort because the number
of int functions which always return 0 is rather large in the kernel,
but if you already got an ack from Leon we'll consider it, so please
adjust and repost.
