Fixes: 07ba60a15843 ("staging: vt6656: clean-up registers initialization error path")

The other part of that bug was fixed silently in commit 987d864a2363
("staging: vt6656: manage error path during device initialization").
I'm quite embarrassed that I didn't catch these during review...  It's
the obvious bug right?  "You have reversed the return values but not
updated any of the callers."  *Egg on my face*.
