I'm not sure why it has an int return type, unfortunately. This is the
function in its entirety:

static int sysc_check_one_child(struct sysc *ddata,
struct device_node *np)
{
const char *name;

name = of_get_property(np, "ti,hwmods", NULL);
if (name)
dev_warn(ddata->dev, "really a child ti,hwmods property?");

sysc_check_quirk_stdout(ddata, np);
sysc_parse_dts_quirks(ddata, np, true);

return 0;
}

I'm not sure how to understand this function. Do dev_warn() or
sysc_check_quirk_stdout() or sysc_parse_dts_quirks() cause a non-zero
return from sysc_check_one_child()? Should I drop my patch?

Thanking you,
Nishka
