wl12xx: Fix validation of pm_runtime_get_sync return value
wl1271_sdio_power_on checks if the return value of pm_runtime_get_sync
is non-zero, and if so bails out.
However, pm_runtime_get_sync can return a positive number which does not
suggest an error has occurred. This is problematic for two reasons:
1. The function will needlessly bail out without decrementing back the
runtime PM reference counter.
2. wl1271_power_on only checks if wl1271_power_on return value is
negative. This means that wl1271_power_on will continue even if
wl1271_sdio_power_on bailed out. As a result, sdio transactions will
be initiated without properly enabling the sdio function and claiming
the host. This could even lead to a kernel panic.
Fix this by only checking that the return value of pm_runtime_get_sync
is non-negative.
