The caller might not care if this call generates errors, but shouldn't
we care if something fails? IOW, perhaps we should have an exit path
with a WARN_ON_ONCE() or some such to indicate that an unhandled error
has occurred..?

Whitespace damage on the above line.

This isn't necessarily true now that we ignore errors. I.e., this also
subtly changes the logic of the function.
