Most callers check for non-zero return, and assume it's -ECHILD (which it always will be). One caller uses the actual error return. Clean this up and make it fully consistent, by having unlazy_walk() return a bool instead. Rename it to try_to_unlazy() and return true on success, and failure on error. That's easier to read. No functional changes in this patch.
