So this would also be fixed for serdev_device_write_buf() by Stefan
Wahren's patch restoring that function implementation, but returning the
amount written is perhaps desirable also for blocking writes for
consistency reasons.

That's some nasty use of the ternary operator. Ditching it completely
would be more readable.

	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;

	if (count)
		return -ETIMEDOUT;

	return wr_count;

and here wr_count is the value of count passed to the function (and
could just be stored on entry instead).
