I reviewed this patch, but I missed this question until Larry responded
to it.

This patch is fine as-is but actually, status is an unsigned int and
we're storing negatives and error codes so that's a bit unfortunate.

                if (status)

The "!= 0" is just a double negative and doesn't add any value.
