mm: compaction: remove unneeded return value of kcompactd_run
Patch series "A few cleanup and fixup patches for compaction". This series contains a few patches to clean up some obsolete comment, remove unneeded return value and so on. Also we fix the possible NULL pointer dereference. More details can be found in the respective changelogs. This patch (of 12): The return value of kcompactd_run() is unused now. Clean it up.
