why return `struct erofs_inode_fingerprint` instead of:

int erofs_xattr_get_ishare_fp(struct erofs_inode_fingerprint *fp,
                   struct inode *inode, const char *domain_id)

instead?


How about declaring this as void erofs_xattr_fill_ishare_fp(struct erofs_inode_fingerprint *fp, struct inode *inode, const char *domain_id)? Because the return value seems useless.

I still perfer to return different values for this helper
even the final user doesn't use this.
