if gp8psk_usb_in_op() returns an error, the status var is not
initialized. Yet, this var is used later on, in order to
identify:
        - if the device was already started;
        - if firmware has loaded;
        - if the LNBf was powered on.

Using status = 0 seems to ensure that everything will be
properly powered up.

So, instead of the proposed solution, let's just set
status = 0.
