I just realized that the next line here can mask ret.


if (import_attach)
ret = dma_buf_end_cpu_access(import_attach->dmabuf,
DMA_FROM_DEVICE);

So, we should either ignore the return value from
dma_buf_end_cpu_access() always or add some logic to ignore it if ret is
already an error.

In some of the other patches I have been sending, we have the same
situation. I those, I have opted to just ignore the return value from
dma_buf_end_cpu_access(). e.g...


if (import_attach)
dma_buf_end_cpu_access(import_attach->dmabuf, DMA_FROM_DEVICE);

Is this a reasonable thing to do?
