The trigger core learned error handling for the activate callback and
can handle device attributes now. This allows simplifying the driver
considerably. Note that .deactivate() is only called when .activate()
succeeded, so the check for trigger_data being non-NULL can go away.
(It was broken before because the core didn't clear .trigger_data, so it
might have been non-NULL even if .activate() failed before.)

Given that activating a trigger can fail, let the callback return an
indication. This prevents to have a trigger active according to the
"trigger" sysfs attribute but not functional.
All users are changed accordingly to return 0 for now. There is no intended
change in behaviour.
