checkpatch doing the wrong thing with "*" in return statement
From: Boaz Harrosh

For example the below patch will warn as:
ERROR: Aspace prohibited after that '*' (ctx:WxW)
#23: FILE: drivers/block/osdblk.c:144:
+ return ret * timeout;
^
clearly it missed the multiplication possibility of "*"
Thanks Boaz
