The docstring already mentioned signalling an error, so I tweaked your
patch to include only the second of the two new sentences, as well as to
mention the full relative file name (lisp/bookmark.el) and the bug
reference (bug#20148) in the commit log, and pushed to emacs-26[1], and
am therefore closing this report.
