I think that warrants an explanation why it doesn't matter if the
code doesn't really set any trip points.

Why start with index 1 ? While index 0 is commonly used for chip data,
that is not mandatory.

checkpatch will complain here because it expects an empty line after a
declaration. Since err is used in multiple conditionals, I would suggest
to declare it once in the function header.

"< 0" is unnecessary.
