Sure. I will use STI as suggested by Maxime.

Okay, but the reasoning is the same. I consider the function to have
failed, but the over-all failure culminates in just a warning that
voltage scaling has indeed failed, but we can still go on with
frequency scaling.
Unless his is a big blocker for you, I would like to keep these
semantics.

I'll take another look at them to see if there is anything we can
use.

Oh, you reversed the condition, I see now.

So technically you are correct, but it makes the code slightly more
confusing IMHO. Yes, it's one more line of code, but it's worth it to
add clarity.
