Good catch, I indeed meant -EINTR.

This function is the body of the thread, and as we can see in the
signature it should return an integer that will then be passed to
kthread_exit() (by kthread-specific code).  It is then useless to
directly call kthread_exit() here, and it is cleaner to follow common
thread function signature.
