It depends.  Some of the upper bounds are signed, as dictated by some
field in a struct.

It's debatable: in this case, you have the option to fallback to polling if
it is a real error, in other drivers you haven't.  If it fails for real here,
it will probably fail for real in other drivers, too.

My main worry is that we ever get a "renesas-nfc" driver for Near
Field Communication.  Both drivers will have the same name, which
will still work with DT (board files are dead), but the output from
dev_*() may be confusing.
