No, if the common functions stop working, then they will be fixed.  If
you try to roll your own and they stop working in the future, no one
will notice.

Please use the common in-kernel functions for this, it's not ok for
drivers to try to do it themselves for basic things like this, no matter
what platform they think they are designed for :)
