Please don't unbalance the lock paths. Instead check the value of ret *after*
the existing mutex unlock (which will also means that the failed
adp8870_read() isn't silently ignored).
Also there's not much point in fixing this site without also fixing the
missing return checks on adp8870_set_bits() and adp8870_clr_bits() in
the same function.
