You would need to add a curly brace here.

You can't overwrite "retval".  We already had an error code save there
but now you're changing to STATUS_SUCCESS.

Anyway, I think the original error handling is probably correct and we
should leave it as-is.  We're already trying to handle an error
situation by resetting stuff.  Then if we get another error while we
take these extreme measures to recover, we shouldn't give up.  We should
just keep on trying to reset instead of returning early.
