Many drivers with tty use the tty_stand_install(). But, there is no
need to handle the error, since it always returns 0. So, change the
return type of tty_standard_install() and tty_port_install() to void
type and remove unnecessary exception handling where we use these
functions.

    You need to update all the callers in the same patch -- the kernel must 
remain buildable after each patch but you seem to have spread that update 
among a lot of patches..

You don't have to. Just reorder the patches as suggested by Sam. (First,
make everybody ignore the return value, then change these return types
to void.)

BTW you can mention in this commit log, that this change is possible
after a3123fd0a4a5. That commit made tty_standard_install to always
return 0.

thanks,
