commit 80dcee695143255261f30c7cc2a041ba413717a4 upstream.

The rcutorture module has an rcu_torture_writer task that repeatedly
performs writes, synchronizations, and deletes. There is a corner-case
check in rcu_torture_writer() wherein if nsynctypes is 0, a warning is
issued and the task waits to be stopped via a call to
torture_kthread_stopping() rather than performing any work.

There should be a return statement following this call to
torture_kthread_stopping(), as the intention with issuing the call to
torture_kthread_stopping() in the first place is to avoid the
rcu_torture_writer task from performing any work. Some of the work may even
be dangerous to perform, such as potentially causing a #DE due to
nsynctypes being used in a modulo operator when querying for sync updates
to issue.

This patch adds the missing return call.  As a bonus, it also fixes a
checkpatch warning that was emitted due to the WARN_ONCE() call using the
name of the function rather than __func__.
