GCC is removing these checks anyway because it knows the arguments must be non-null, so leaving this code around is just confusing. We know from experience that people were shipping code with locking bugs because they weren't checking for error returns. Failing hard like glibc does seems the better choice. (And it's what the checked in code was already doing; this patch doesn't change that. It just makes it more obvious that that's what's going on.) Change-Id: I167c6d7c0a296822baf0cb9b43b97821eba7ab35
