Did you mean in that file or globally? Because I just tried the first
thing that came to my mind and look at the output:

libvirt $ find . -name '*.[ch]' -type f -exec grep -nH -e \
'return(.*);' {} + | wc -l
852

Not that I wouldn't do it, it just seem as a pretty big change. On the
other hand, I don't see the point in changing that in only one file.
