 Got a new coverity report today:

 {{{
 *** CID 1435546:  Error handling issues  (CHECKED_RETURN)
 /src/common/compat_libevent.c: 286 in periodic_timer_disable()
 280      * If the timer is already disabled, this function does nothing.
 281      */
 282     void
 283     periodic_timer_disable(periodic_timer_t *timer)
 284     {
 285       tor_assert(timer);
 >>>     CID 1435546:  Error handling issues  (CHECKED_RETURN)
 >>>     Calling "event_del" without checking return value (as is done
 elsewhere 4 out of 5 times).
 286       event_del(timer->ev);
 287     }
 288
 289     /** Stop and free a periodic timer */
 290     void
 291     periodic_timer_free_(periodic_timer_t *timer)
 }}}

 Seems to be related to #26063.
