This function is supposed to return zero on success or negative error
codes on error.  Unfortunately, there is a bug so it sometimes returns
non-zero, positive numbers on success.

I noticed this bug during review and I can't test it.  It does appear
that the return is sometimes propogated back to _regmap_read() where all
non-zero returns are treated as failure so this may affect run time.

v2: In v1, I introduced an new error path and forgot to drop the lock.
Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <redacted>

I've got some cleanup work to do with this driver.
Getting to it.
