Many, if not most, of these functions should either be having their
return value checked, or be void functions as no one checks their return
value and they can not fail.  Please split this up and look at each
function to determine which is is and how to fix it up properly.  Just
returning 0 all the time is not the correct thing to do all the time.

One example would be rtw_p2p_get_status()  It can not fail, so why does
it return anything?

thanks,
