The 7029677e4 commit introduced the following build break: target-ppc/kvm.c: In function ‘kvmppc_hash64_write_pte’: target-ppc/kvm.c:2017:10: error: ignoring return value of ‘write’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result] write(htab_fd, &hpte_buf, sizeof(hpte_buf)); ^
Even though nothing is done for the moment if kvm_htab_write() fails, we obviously need to be explicit. Let's add an *empty* return path to please gcc.
