sorry - sent that out too fast - the logic is equivalent the negative
returns are treated correctly because only the success case is 
being returned explicidly as 0 in ov965x_read() return statement
by checking for the expecte return of 1 from i2c_transfer() wrapping
it to 0.

sorry for the noise.

thx!
