I am always in favor of direct returns over a do nothing return because
of the ambiguity about error codes. Also I just published a new Smatch
check where "return ret;" and "return 0;" are equivalent.
ret = frob();
if (ret)
return ret;
if (something else)
return ret;
I have a different unpublished check for:
ret = frob();
if (!ret)
return ret;
The bug I'm looking for here is that once or twice a year the !
character is unintentional.
