    crypto: algapi - make unregistration functions return void · c6d633a9
    Eric Biggers authored
    Some of the algorithm unregistration functions return -ENOENT when asked
    to unregister a non-registered algorithm, while others always return 0
    or always return void.  But no users check the return value, except for
    two of the bulk unregistration functions which print a message on error
    but still always return 0 to their caller, and crypto_del_alg() which
    calls crypto_unregister_instance() which always returns 0.
    
    Since unregistering a non-registered algorithm is always a kernel bug
    but there isn't anything callers should do to handle this situation at
    runtime, let's simplify things by making all the unregistration
    functions return void, and moving the error message into
    crypto_unregister_alg() and upgrading it to a WARN().
