Subject: [PATCH] media: i2c: adp1653: fix error handling from a call to adp1653_get_fault

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

The error check on rval from the call to adp1653_get_fault currently
returns if rval is non-zero. This appears to be incorrect as the
following if statement checks for various bit settings in rval so
clearly rval is expected to be non-zero at that point. Coverity
flagged the if statement up as deadcode.  Fix this so the error
return path only occurs when rval is negative.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code")
Fixes: 287980e49ffc ("remove lots of IS_ERR_VALUE abuses")
