I don't see this used in the next commit. While true that I initially
wrote the patch this way, I think having functions return more than just
an int is best avoided whenever possible.

Furthermore, I am immediately going to change the ring->last_context_obj
to ring->last_context, which should nullify the need to return the last
context anyway. I already have, and can submit that patch if needed.
