Subject: [PATCH 6/16] drivers/media: Use available error codes

From: Julia Lawall <julia@...u.dk>

In each case, error codes are stored in rc, but the return value is always
0.  Return rc instead.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r@
local idexpression x;
constant C;
@@

if (...) { ...
  x = -C
  ... when != x
(
  return <+...x...+>;
|
  return NULL;
|
  return;
|
* return ...;
)
}
// </smpl>

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@...u.dk>

The changes change the semantics and are not tested.  In the second case,
the function is used in only one place and the return value is igored.
