Did you mean

if (ret)
 return ret;

?

I briefly checked few ->read() and ->write() implementations and
didn't find any evidence of positive numbers that can be returned.
Documentation (kernel doc) doesn't shed a light on that. So, to me it
sounds unspecified.

So, for now (until documentation will be fixed) I would rely on
if (ret < 0)
