Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: Do not return value from init_dummy_netdev()
Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2024 12:30:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240205103022.440946-1-amcohen@nvidia.com> (raw)

init_dummy_netdev() always returns zero and all the callers do not check
the returned value. Set the function to not return value, as it is not
really used today.
