Subject: [PATCH v4 13/23] x86/alternative: Remove the return value of text_poke_*()
Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2019 11:57:55 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190422185805.1169-14-rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190422185805.1169-1-rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com>
From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>
The return value of text_poke_early() and text_poke_bp() is useless.
Remove it.
