Well, we have exactly one caller of this function, and that caller
doesn't actually care about the return value.

The function is literally the "preferred" affinity. If the affinity
setup fails, it's harmless.

Anyway, the fix doesn't look wrong, and I've pulled it, but it's just
all very harmless. I think the "set but not used" error could have
been fixed by just removing the 'ret' variable entirely.
