This is probably a leftover from a time when the return wasn't there yet.

60262e58e3 arm unaligned.h annotations
Have put_unaligned() warn if types would be wrong
for assignment, slap force-casts where needed.  Cast the
result of get_unaligned to typeof(*ptr).  With that in
place we get proper typechecking, both from gcc and from sparse,
including that for bitwise types.

6aa8b04975 cyclone.c: silly use of volatile, __iomem fixes
u32* volatile cyclone_timer means volatile auto pointer to u32,
which is clearly not what had been intended (we never even take
the address of that variable, let alone pass it to something that
could change it behind our back).  u32 volatile * is what the
authors apparently wanted to say, but in reality we don't need that
qualifier there at all - it's (properly) only passed to iomem helpers
which takes care of that stuff just fine.

704eae1f32 ip6_tunnel - endianness annotations
Convert rel_info to host-endian before calling ip6_tnl_err().
The things become much more straightforward that way.
The key observation (and the reason why that code actually
worked) is that after ip6_tnl_err() we either immediately
bailed out or had rel_info set to 0 or had it set to host-endian
and guaranteed to hit
(rel_type == ICMP_DEST_UNREACH && rel_code == ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED)
case.  So inconsistent endianness didn't really lead to bugs,
but it had been subtle and prone to breakage.  New variant is
saner and obviously safe.

9d78592ed7 [POWERPC] spusched: Fix initial timeslice calculation
Currently we calculate the first timeslice for every context
incorrectly - alloc_spu_context calls spu_set_timeslice before we set
ctx->prio so we always calculate the longest possible timeslice for the
lowest possible priority.

This patch makes sure to update the schedule-related fields before
calculating the timeslice and also makes sure we update the timeslice for
a non-running context when entering spu_run so a priority change affects
the context as soon as possible.
