I see. But since Michal is meant adding the reasoning to the commit message, it seems
a v2 patch is required. Or could you help modify the commit message? It should looks
like:

"
The return value of cgroup_rm_cftypes_locked() is always 0 and swallowing
errors on removal is fine because cgroup_addrm_files() won't fail at
removal. So remove return value to simplify the code. No functional
change intended.
"

Thanks a lot.
