Subject: [Patch net-next v5] netpoll: fix some sparse warnings in various places

From: Cong Wang <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2013 11:22:29 +0800

From: Cong Wang <[email-masked]>

This fixes sparse warnings like the one below:

drivers/net/team/team.c:953:25: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different address spaces)
drivers/net/team/team.c:953:25:    expected struct netpoll_info *
drivers/net/team/team.c:953:25:    got struct netpoll_info [noderef] <asn:4>*npinfo

and make these functions return bool as suggested by Jiri.
