"return ret;" is not immediately clear like a "return 0;".  I review a
lot of return values so it's really important that the code is clear.
I'm looking for places which return both postives and negatives.  These
should always be documented but the majority are not.

Also another thing is that when people do:

	ret = some_function();
	if (!ret)
		return ret;

I review all of those because a bug that we sometimes see is that the
if statement is reversed and the ! should be removed.  A third thing is
that people sometimes do silly things with the last if statement in the
function.

	ret = one();
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	ret = two();
	if (ret)
		goto free_one;

	ret = three();
	if (!ret)
		return ret;   // <-- UGH!!!!

	free(two);
free_one:
	free(one);

Please look for this and tell people to not write code like that.  It's
always better to do failure handling instead of success handling.
