In my opinion, the -ENODEV return value can be completely dropped. For the caller it should be sufficient to check for nr_apqns == 0.

Please update *nr_apqns unconditionally.

Why not just return nr_apqns == 0 to indicate, that no matching device has been found? Anyhow, even if you would stay with the -ENODEV return value, *nr_apqns should be updated in any case.
