I also think this is fine - just more error cases. And I don't see that 
it could break something. So from me:

Acked-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

And most importantly, with this change are you able to omit the patch I 
did not like, the one which was returning a fake status while the load 
was in progress? I can't remember if it was faking running while loading 
or what exactly.
