Could you split the patch into small patches since it handles a few different
things?

Is there any paticular reason to chose 7*32+31 instead of 7*32+7?

Return an error (e.g. -ENODEV) could be better because there is no device for
this driver. Then caller may handle this error accordingly (no caller handles
the error currently, though).

Return -ENODEV could be better.
