Bah... Yes, I should have done that.  I was really just
focused on the new function I created and didn't need
to.   I'll do as you suggest.

I'll also see if I do that anywhere else in the driver
and will use these functions as well if appropriate.

I'll do so in the same patch 2 of version 3.

Thanks Florian.
