[PATCH 2/2] backlight: lp855x: Catch errors when changing brightness

From: Artur Weber
Date: Fri Jul 14 2023 - 08:14:57 EST


The lp855x_bl_update_status function's return type is int, but
it always returns 0, without checking for the results of the
write_byte/pwm_ctrl functions called within.

Make this function return the return values of the functions it
calls, and modify the lp855x_pwm_ctrl function to return errors.
