Hi Andrew,

all the calls to s6e63m0_panel_send_sequence() would return -EINVAL.
by api_async() of driver/spi/spi.c
so I think that those return values aren't changed to other.

and final step is to check only whether the return value is 0 or not.
if you still think that this code has minor problem or you want it to
be corrected
then I will patch this code to be corrected anytime.

Thank you.
