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.")

+ * .data.nr - filled with system call number or -1
+ * .data.args - filled with @maxargs system call arguments
+ * .data.instruction_pointer - filled with user PC
+ *
+ * If @target is blocked in a system call, returns zero with @info.data.nr
+ * set to the call's number and @info.data.args filled in with its
+ * arguments. Registers not used for system call arguments may not be available
+ * and it is not kosher to use &struct user_regset calls while the system
+ * call is still in progress. Note we may get this result if @target
+ * has finished its system call but not yet returned to user mode, such
+ * as when it's stopped for signal handling or syscall exit tracing.
+ *
+ * If @target is blocked in the kernel during a fault or exception,
+ * returns zero with *@info.data.nr set to -1 and does not fill in
+ * @info.data.args. If so, it's now safe to examine @target using
+ * &struct user_regset get() calls as long as we're sure @target won't return
+ * to user mode.

+ * Returns -%EAGAIN if @target does not remain blocked.
