How can this build if you don't also update ixgbe_dcbnl_set_state() et
al. to have a "u8" instead of a "void" return value too?

Oh I see, you send the update two patches later.

Don't do that, it breaks GIT bisect.

If you change the prototype for a method function, you must also
change all implementations of that method to match at the same time.

I've dropped both changes.
