[Santosh Mahto]

In WTFString.cpp  WTF::String::format(), va_end call could be missed after va_start() is called if the function return
at following places.

if (result == 0)
     return String("");
if (result < 0)
    return String();

The patch looks good to me, but it needs to remove the orphaned comment.

The correct spelling is "separately". Also, not sure if this comment adds anything of value on top of the title.

Is there any known benefit, other than the code looking slightly more nicely (e.g. does that fix some platform)? It would be good to explain that in the bug for posterity if so.
