Doing error handling can be done in different ways of course, but I think
it's easier to see it's right as it's done by this patch. Of course the
original author's --- like anyone else's --- review wouldn't hurt. But I
see he hasn't reviewed other recent patches to the driver either.

A better description would be nice though, including capital letter
beginning a sentence.
