The hid_hw_raw_request() function returns negative error codes or the
number bytes transferred. The problem is that when it returns negative
error codes and we check if "ret < sizeof(arctis_1_battery_request)",
then the negative values are type promoted from int to high unsigned long
values and treated as success.
This was detected using Smatch:
drivers/hid/hid-steelseries.c:393 steelseries_headset_arctis_1_fetch_battery()
warn: error code type promoted to positive: 'ret'
