4.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> commit 74e3bb75315ce62a4567f2871276bab32802e8b4 upstream. The newly added function triggers a harmless warning: drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/ptlrpc/pack_generic.c: In function 'lustre_shrink_msg': drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/ptlrpc/pack_generic.c:472:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type] This probably happens because LASSERTF() contains an 'unlikely()' that sometimes prevents gcc from analysing the control flow correctly. Adding a return statement here seems harmless and lets us keep that unlikely().
