It has more to do with the fact that we now return early on errors so r
will always be zero here. It's better to be explicit about that.

Sorry, I meant that the (r < 0) change was unrelated since you're no
longer touching ch341_control_out(). The return is indeed still needed.

Yes, but as above I'm referring to the (r < 0) change for
ch341_control_out() which is now unrelated to the rest of the patch.
