Subject: [PATCH v1 21/23] dmaengine: sh: Discard pm_runtime_put() return value

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

Clobbering an error value to be returned from shdma_tx_submit() with
a pm_runtime_put() return value is not particularly useful, especially
if the latter is 0, so stop doing that.

This will facilitate a planned change of the pm_runtime_put() return
type to void in the future.

This patch is part of a series, but it doesn't depend on anything else
in that series.  The last patch in the series depends on it.

It can be applied by itself and if you decide to do so, please let me
know.

Otherwise, an ACK or equivalent will be appreciated, but also the lack
of specific criticism will be eventually regarded as consent.
