min() macro is defined in include/linux/minmax.h. It avoids multiple
evaluations of the arguments when non-constant and performs strict
type-checking.

no, these are all error return patterns, if you want to change them to
something change them to

if (error < 0)
return error;
return 0;

Do you mean we need to stress that they are error return patterns instead of taking "minimum value" style code?
