FWIW my patch returning 0 in every case wasn't to be taken seriously.
However, in my case I got a never-ending series of such warnings which
was not a particularly nice failure scenario as opposed to something
like "ath0: hardware is hosed, disabling."  That's certainly something
the driver could do (but then why bother returning anything from the
function?)
