event API conformance testing with coccinelle spatches are being
used to locate API usage inconsistencies this triggert with:
./drivers/gpu/drm/i2c/tda998x_drv.c:1062
incorrect check for negative return
The return of wait_event_timeout is always >= 0, thus the negative
check was effectively being ignoring - as the timeout will be checked
a few lines below the error condition being checked here seems to be
wrong or this is simply dead code which would be my guess as the
timeout condition check covers the wait-queue related failure condition.

Can't really determine what the right fix for this would be - someone
that knows this driver would need to check - in any case the current
code seems broken.
Patch was compile tested with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_DRM_I2C_SIL164=m
Patch is against 4.1-rc7 (localversion-next is -next-20150610)
