Would this not be better to change the logic?

Zero return is generally true and non-zero is false.

Then this statement in the probe then can go from

    if (!tsl4531_check_id(client)) {
        dev_err(&client->dev, "no TSL4531 sensor\n");
        return -ENODEV;
    }

to

    if (tsl4531_check_id(client)) {
        dev_err(&client->dev, "no TSL4531 sensor\n");
        return -ENODEV;
    }

And if then return ret can be honored in probe.
