  Move the simple exit cases, ie. which don't depend on the value written,
earlier in the function. That makes it clearer that regardless of the
input those states can not be transitioned out of.

That does have a user-visible effect, in that the error returned will
now always be EPERM/ENODEV for those states, regardless of the value
written. Previously writing an invalid value would return EINVAL even
when in those states.
