I've applied this with two tiny changes, see below. Please shout if you
think that's a bad idea.

I dropped the ret = 0 here because all error paths set it explicitly and
the non-error path never uses it. Now all branches have a single
statement and therefore the braces can be dropped.

Changed the first condition to !pb->enable_gpio for consistency.
