Hi Pavel,

Somewhat yes, in the sense that this is existing behaviour and changing
it is a semantic change in the driver, thus arguably outside the scope
of a patch/patch set that is intended to just focus on error code
handling (moving from _SUCCESS/_FAIL to 0 and -EWHATEVER).

Not fixed to that by any means though, if you would prefer it be
restructured as well. I need to do a V2 for this anyway.

Regards,
Phil
