I would take the "ret = 1;" out of the if statement and let it stay here 
by itself.  Technically anything that traversed this path was returning 
1 previously so we probably want to retain that behavior.

You could just alter the if statement here to check for a non-zero ret 
value since you should have it as either 0 or 1.  It shouldn't have any 
other values.

That way you will have disabled the feature on the lower devices before 
advertising that it has been disabled on the upper device.
