If so, then perhaps this may as well become a void return and remove the
return 0.

That could then clean up some redundant error path handling in
drivers/gpu/drm/renesas/rcar-du/rcar_du_crtc.c too ?

Still, this does correct the documentation to match the implementation
as it stands so... for that ...

Reviewed-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham+renesas@...asonboard.com>

But removing an unused error path seems like a worthy clean up
opportunity too.

Hrm ... well the documented behaviour was the same even before this
commit in rcar_du_get(), so perhaps it was documenting the intent... But
it does seem that the return code has been redundant for quite some time
so perhaps it's just not required.
