The commit msg doesn't explain why the functional change in this
checkpatch cleanup is OK?

It looks like both to_abstraction_guid() and to_abstraction_uuid()
change the behavior for invalid or unexpected enum values. They use
to return &guid_null or &uuid_null, and with this patch they now
return target. That seems to remove our protection against future
enum values or corrupted enum val.
