Yet, we can't even boot a mainline kernel, and this list will probably
need some update when new SoCs come out.

Anyway, it's not a big deal.

Then, use the passed kobject to retrieve its parent device structure,
and from there, get the drvdata to get back on your feet.

Actually, you already seem to do that and I overlooked that part in my
previous review.

So just use the priv structure you have defined in your read function
and that is useless right now.

Which u-boot are you talking about?
I'd really prefer to have a sane and logical behaviour rather than a
broken one, even though it used to be like that in the
Allwinner-provided kernel.

And you already check the size passed.

It's not really that it's bad, but using return directly would take less
code overall, but that's not a big deal, if you prefer to keep it that
way, I'm fine with it.
