[acme@doppio ~]$ cat dd.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
	int idx = -2;

	printf("%d\n", idx < 0 ? : 10);
	printf("%d\n", idx < 0 ? idx : 10);
	return 0;
}
[acme@doppio ~]$ ./dd
1
-2
[acme@doppio ~]$

Which one do you want? The boolean result as the value to be returned or
the index if it is < 0?

I tried to check on the other 4 patches on this series to check if usage
clarified if it was correct, but there is no use of
dccp_feat_default_value() on this 5 patches, perhaps it could be
deferred to when it actually gets used?
