You should return 0 for x550, not 64 since it isn't supported.

My suggestion would be to alter the code so that you return 128 for
everything <= x540_vf, and place a return 0 as the default return
without a need for the if statement.

Same thing here.  If you don't support this on x550 you should probably
return 0 instead of returning a value.

My advice here would be to just wrap these two functions in one mailbox
lock and update the second check so that it is if (!err && key) so that
you can simplify the path and just return err at the end.
