None of the callers of pg_init_all_paths() check its return value.
Hence change the return type of pg_init_all_paths() from int into
void.

Hmm. But this would invalidate your earlier patch, now would it not?
And at least in my code we _do_ check the return value in
pg_init_done(), and it's return value is used to check if we need to
wake up for submitting waiting I/O.
Which tree is the patch made against?
Hello Hannes,
This patch applies on top of kernel v4.8-rc8. In that kernel version the
return value of __pg_init_all_paths() is used but the return value of
pg_init_all_paths() is not used by any caller.
Bart.
