Coverity reported the following:

*** CID 1527252: Control flow issues (DEADCODE) drivers/media/i2c/tc358746.c:411 in tc358746_apply_pll_config()

407     	val = PLL_FRS(ilog2(post)) | RESETB | PLL_EN;
408     	mask = PLL_FRS_MASK | RESETB | PLL_EN;
409     	tc358746_update_bits(tc358746, PLLCTL1_REG, mask, val);
410     	if (err)
