Fix this by passing by reference. [This dates back to 2002, I found the offending commit from the git history git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git ] Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value") Fixes: 115f4504a64a ("Removed currcon and other console related code. Very little is now left.")
