Subject: [PATCH 4.9 068/199] media: stkwebcam: Bugfix for wrong return values

From: Andreas Pape <ap@...pape.de>

[ Upstream commit 3c28b91380dd1183347d32d87d820818031ebecf ]

usb_control_msg returns in case of a successfully sent message the number
of sent bytes as a positive number. Don't use this value as a return value
for stk_camera_read_reg, as a non-zero return value is used as an error
condition in some cases when stk_camera_read_reg is called.
