I don't think it aids readability to have constructs like:
if (ret)
return ret;
if (check())
ret = do_foo();
if (ret)
return ret;
I want to print a debug message anyway, so I'd just keep if (ret) inside.

I want it to return errors codes. barebox-state doesn't care and would
return -EINVAL on IS_ERR unconditionally, but it may be useful to future
users to differentiate between disk is not gpt and disk is gpt but device
doesn't exist.
