si2165_readreg8() may fail. Looking into si2165_readreg8(), we will find
that "val_tmp" will be an uninitialized value when regmap_read() fails.
"val_tmp" is then assigned to "val". So if si2165_readreg8() fails,
"val" will be a random value. Further use will lead to undefined
behaviors. The fix checks if si2165_readreg8() fails, and if so, returns
its error code upstream.

Unless it is tested on the actual hardware we can't apply this. This could
introduce regressions.

I tested it on a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR5500 tuning to DVB-C.
