Returning an error value in an i2c remove callback results in an error
message being emitted by the i2c core, but otherwise it doesn't make a
difference. The device goes away anyhow and the devm cleanups are
called.
In this case the remove callback even returns early without stopping the
tcpm worker thread and various timers. A work scheduled on the work
queue, or a firing timer after tcpci_remove() returned probably results
in a use-after-free situation because the regmap and driver data were
freed. So better make sure that tcpci_unregister_port() is called even
if disabling the irq failed.
Also emit a more specific error message instead of the i2c core's
"remove failed (EIO), will be ignored" and return 0 to suppress the
core's warning.
This patch is (also) a preparation for making i2c remove callbacks
return void.
