The documentation is of a new option, not of -Wreturn-type, so the 
ChangeLog entry should name the option being documented or the section to 
which the documentation is added.

Please see where invoke.texi says:

    Many options have long names starting with @samp{-f} or with
    @samp{-W}---for example,
    @option{-fmove-loop-invariants}, @option{-Wformat} and so on.  Most of
    these have both positive and negative forms; the negative form of
    @option{-ffoo} is @option{-fno-foo}.  This manual documents
    only one of these two forms, whichever one is not the default.

Thus, you should list the option as -Wno-prio-ctor-dtor when documenting 
it.

This list appears to be in alphabetical order (ignoring the "no-"), so the 
natural place for this option in this list would be after -Wno-pragmas.

And likewise here.  See other such options, e.g. -Wno-attributes, for 
examples.

And then you need to say "Do not warn", to be consistent with documenting 
the negative form of the option.

You're not meant to have the literal text ", no ()" in the manual.  The 
point of my ", no ()" in the review comments is to draw attention to the 
point in the GNU Coding Standards that you don't put "()" after the name 
of a function to indicate that it's a function, because putting "()" there 
means a function call with no arguments.

Given that you have a c-c++-common test, I don't see why a g++.dg one is 
needed as well; it appears to be testing the same thing.
