I was initially using it to not schedule the dapm_power_widgets(), but there 
is potential for problems when the DAPM graph and the hardware state are 
out-of-sync, in which case we still want to apply the register update. There 
are some corner cases where this can happen and which need to be fixed first.

I can drop the return type for now.
