New code looks OK but these changes reveal just how crazy the return codes
from this driver's update_status() methods are since now the new (PWM) error path is
structured completely differently to the existing (I2C) error path.

update_status() should return 0 on success and a -ve errno otherwise.

Thus the new code to return -errno is correct and so is the I2C success
code path. However the PWM success path and the I2C error path are both
broken.

Are you OK to add a patch *before* this one to fix the existing code
paths before making the PWM changes?
