rc is always 0 upon loop exit, afaict:

    for ( ; pdev->phantom_stride; rc = 0 )

Granted this is unusual and hence possibly unexpected.

Fair enough, but since I've not spotted a patch expressing this (by
adding suitable conditionals), may I ask that you do so in yet another
patch (unless I've overlooked where this gets done)?

"if ( !IS_ENABLED() )" as I did already point out to you yesterday in
reply to v2 of patch 10 of this very series.

The question wasn't whether you switch away from the #ifdef-s, but
whether later patches leave that as the only choice (avoiding build
breakage).
