Yup.

Right, but you're changing all bunch of drivers like this:

static void reload()
{
- return do_it();
+ int err;
+
+ err = do_it();
+ if (err)
+ return err;
+
+ *actions_performed = SOMETHING;
+ return 0;
}

When you can instead:

static void reload()
{
+ *actions_performed = SOMETHING;
return do_it();
}

I don't think it'd be, but don't feel strongly either.

Don't call the helper _fill() and you'll be good.

I don't think this is on purpose. Please use range validation in new
code from the start. We support dumping policies to user space, it's
useful to know the range of parameters from the policy.
