That's some EnterpriseQuality[tm] style guidelines.  It's an over fussy
rule that just makes the code harder to read for no reason.

This is good, though.

This comment doesn't make sense now.

Just say:

	retval = rf69_read_reg(spi, REG_VERSION);
	if (retval < 0)
		return retval;

Deleting the error handling was a bad style choice.  Also preserve the
error code.
