PTR_RET() is a weird name, and led to some confusing usage. We ended

up with PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(), and replacing or fixing all the usages.
 
 This has been sitting in linux-next for a whole cycle.
 
 Thanks,
 Rusty.

[ There are still some PTR_RET users scattered about, with some of them
  possibly being new, but most of them existing in Rusty's tree too.  We
  have that

      #define PTR_RET(p) PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(p)

  thing in <linux/err.h>, so they continue to work for now  - Linus ]
