Appling the mask 0x0f to the immediate return of the call to
mb86a20s_readreg will always result in a positive value, meaning that the
check of ret < 0 will never work. Instead, check for a -ve return value
first, and then mask val with 0x0f.
Kudos to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for spotting the mistake in my original fix.
