lease_modify will only fail if the "arg" that it's passed is bogus, and
that's clearly not the case in these callers. What might be better is
to make a lease_modify variant that's a void return and that throws a
WARN when "arg" is bad.
I'd suggest just making lease_modify itself a void return, but it's
also the stock lm_change callback, and that prototype requires an int
return function.

A couple of nits here: printing out the pointer value won't generally be
helpful in an ERR level log message. Also, there's no need to embed a
newline in the middle of the message. That can make for an ugly log
message in syslog or the equivalent.
