No one other than overly-anal referees cares. Blow the whistle and give the other team the ball.

Exactly, same as when a dribbler carries the ball. Do you have travelling? An illegal second dribble? Something else? Who cares? Give the "palming" signal and get the game going. The coaches and players understand that signal. If you call "travelling" because the dribbler moved his pivot foot while carrying the ball, then it's almost guaranteed that someone is gonna be asking for an explanation.
