From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> The only caller of acpi_scan_init(), acpi_init(), doesn't check its return value, so turn it into a void function. This avoids complaints from the Smatch static checker that the function should return a negative error code when it fails, which is not really a problem in this particular case. No intentional functional impact. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20220106082317.GA9123@kili/ Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
