Tested this with devpts and by compiling kernel with 'allmodconfig'.

Subject: [PATCH] simple_set_mnt() should return void
simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup
if it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single()
and get_sb_nodev() should:
up_write(sb->s_unmount);
deactivate_super(sb);
if simple_set_mnt() fails.
Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not
return anything.
