Subject: [for-next][PATCH 06/10] ring-buffer: Remove jump to out label in ring_buffer_swap_cpu()

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@...dmis.org>

The function ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has a bunch of jumps to the label out
that simply returns "ret". There's no reason to jump to a label that
simply returns a value. Just return directly from there.

This goes back to almost the beginning when commit 8aabee573dff
("ring-buffer: remove unneeded get_online_cpus") was introduced. That
commit removed a put_online_cpus() from that label, but never updated all
the jumps to it that now no longer needed to do anything but return a
value.
