Hi Pavel

An error is always returned to the caller. It should be the caller who
handles error recovery, and if need be prints an error message. The
only time we would print an error message is in a void function, when
we cannot return an error code.

I've also followed what we do in mv88e6xxx. It works fine there, so i
don't see the need to do anything different here.
