OK. Drop them.

The hardware has been initially developed as peripheral component for 8 bit systems
and therefore control and status registers defined as 8 bit groups. Nevertheless
the hardware is designed as a 32 bit component finally. It prefers 32-bit read/write
interfaces. I will add a comment later.

Will use netdev_err() and return -EWOULDBLOCK instead.

Agree with you. Will modify accordingly.

OK, drop it.

Thanks for you review.
