Mark res_counter_charge(_locked) with __must_check
Ignoring their return values may result in counter underflow in the future - when the value charged will be uncharged (or in "leaks" - when the value is not uncharged). This also prevents from using charging routines to decrement the counter value (i.e. uncharge it) ;) (Current code works OK with res_counter, however :) ) Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Paul Menage <menage@google.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
