[Tom Rix]

clang with W=1 reports
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_svm.c:929:6: error: variable
  'ret' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-variable]
        int ret;
            ^
This variable is not used so remove it.

nvif_object_ioctl() may return -ENOSYS.  Seeing other call sites have
comments like:
114     /*XXX: warn? */
134     /*XXX: warn? */

or other places where the return code isn't checked makes me think
that a better approach would be to
1. plumb error codes back up through nouveau_pfns_map() (and other
call sites of nvif_object_ioctl)
2. consider making nvif_object_ioctl __must_check
