While we are looking at this, it looks like we can follow this up
with another patch to return cm32181_write_als_it() directly and
drop the ret local variable.

There are also a couple of switch statements where we could move
the return -EINVAL into a default: case as we usually do in IIO.
(A separate patch for this as well.)
