From: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com>

commit 665788572c6410b7efadc2e3009c5d830b6d8ef9 upstream.

We don't use the error return for anything other than reporting and
logging that there is no VBT. We can pull the logging in the function,
and remove the error status return. Moreover, if we needed the
information for something later on, we'd probably be better off storing
the bit in dev_priv, and using it where it's needed, instead of using
the error return.

While at it, improve the comments.
