Author: jhb Date: Tue Feb 18 20:16:32 2014 New Revision: 262190 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/262190 Log: MFC 261518: - Update a few places to account for va_copy(). - Create a separate 'return values' section and move some statements about return values to that section. - Note that each invocation of va_start() and va_copy() must be paired with va_end() in the same function.
