[PATCH v1 1/2] i2c: acpi: Return -ENOENT when no resources found in i2c_acpi_client_count()

From: Andy Shevchenko

Date: Tue Nov 25 2025 - 04:43:39 EST


Some users want to return an error to the upper layers when
i2c_acpi_client_count() returns 0. Follow the common pattern
in such cases, i.e. return -ENOENT instead of 0.

While at it, fix the kernel-doc warning about missing return value
description.
