As I mentioned in the summary, the change is smaller binary size and 
being in sync with al3000a. Since al3xxx series drivers are pretty close 
to each other, I believe for future maintenance having them in pair, 
where it's possible is beneficial.

I'm aware I should likely address the changes in smaller chunks, but as 
I get this patch tested, it's fairly small patch, so I would believe 
it's still bearable size of the change? If not, I'll split changes into 
separate patches.

Sure, I can do.

I originally had name gain for this one, but decided to go with generic 
value to cover all cases. If you want, I can go back to custom name per 
case.

Well, I was at editing and as i is used within array id, it cannot be 
signed integer, second it's also compared against u8, so IMHO it make 
sense here.

Sure, I can split it into additional patch.

Sure, I'll move it back.
