The return value of i2c_smbus_read_byte_data() is checked in
tmp401_init_client(), but only a warning is printed and the device is
registered anyway. This leads to devices being registered even if they
cannot be physically detected.

Bail-out from probe in case of write errors and notify the user.

No error check and return here ?
