Subject: [PATCH] leds: leds-lp5521: Avoid writing uninitialized value to
 LP5521_REG_OP_MODE register

If lp5521_read fails, engine_state variable is not initialized.
If lp5521_read fails, we should return error.
This patch fixes below warning.

  CC      drivers/leds/leds-lp5521.o
drivers/leds/leds-lp5521.c: In function 'lp5521_set_engine_mode':
drivers/leds/leds-lp5521.c:168: warning: 'engine_state' may be used uninitialized in this function
