iio: proximity: isl29501: Fix return type of isl29501_register_writegrafted
isl29501_register_write() was returning a u32 instead of an int. Since the function returns negative error codes (such as -ERANGE or return values from i2c_smbus_write_byte_data()), returning an unsigned integer type prevents callers from correctly checking for negative error conditions. Fix this by changing the function return type from u32 to int. This was found through manual code review. Fixes: 1c28799257bc ("iio: light: isl29501: Add support for the ISL29501 ToF sensor.")

+GFXOFF
+======
+
+GFXOFF is a feature found in most recent GPUs that saves power at runtime. The
+card's RLC (RunList Controller) firmware powers off the gfx engine
+dynamically when there is no workload on gfx or compute pipes. GFXOFF is on by
+default on supported GPUs.
+
+Userspace can interact with GFXOFF through a debugfs interface (all values in
+`uint32_t`, unless otherwise noted):
+
+``amdgpu_gfxoff``
+-----------------
+
+Use it to enable/disable GFXOFF, and to check if it's current enabled/disabled::
+
+ $ xxd -l1 -p /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_gfxoff
+ 01
+
+- Write 0 to disable it, and 1 to enable it.
+- Read 0 means it's disabled, 1 it's enabled.
+
+If it's enabled, that means that the GPU is free to enter into GFXOFF mode as
+needed. Disabled means that it will never enter GFXOFF mode.
+
+``amdgpu_gfxoff_status``
+------------------------
+
+Read it to check current GFXOFF's status of a GPU::
+
+ $ xxd -l1 -p /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_gfxoff_status
+ 02
+
+- 0: GPU is in GFXOFF state, the gfx engine is powered down.
+- 1: Transition out of GFXOFF state
+- 2: Not in GFXOFF state
+- 3: Transition into GFXOFF state
+
+If GFXOFF is enabled, the value will be transitioning around [0, 3], always
+getting into 0 when possible. When it's disabled, it's always at 2. Returns
+``-EINVAL`` if it's not supported.
+
+``amdgpu_gfxoff_count``
+-----------------------
+
+Read it to get the total GFXOFF entry count at the time of query since system
+power-up. The value is an `uint64_t` type, however, due to firmware limitations,
+it can currently overflow as an `uint32_t`. *Only supported in vangogh*
+
+``amdgpu_gfxoff_residency``
+---------------------------
+
+Write 1 to amdgpu_gfxoff_residency to start logging, and 0 to stop. Read it to
+get average GFXOFF residency % multiplied by 100 during the last logging
+interval. E.g. a value of 7854 means 78.54% of the time in the last logging
+interval the GPU was in GFXOFF mode. *Only supported in vangogh*
