Subject: [PATCH 5.4 43/69] iio: ssp_sensors: fix error code in ssp_print_mcu_debug()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 4170d3dd1467e9d78cb9af374b19357dc324b328 upstream.

The ssp_print_mcu_debug() function should return negative error codes on
error.  Returning "length" is meaningless.  This change does not affect
runtime because the callers only care about zero/non-zero.
