I've just looked at this again, and spotted something:

So yes, this can return negative numbers.

Two issues here:

1. The additional parens are /really/ not required.
2. What if reg_read(priv, REG_VERSION_MSB) returns a negative number?

If we're going to the extent of attempting to make the read/write
functions return errors, we should at least handle errors generated
by them properly, otherwise it's pointless making them return errors.

	ret = reg_read(priv, REG_VERSION_LSB);
	if (ret < 0)
		goto fail;

	priv->rev = ret;

	ret = reg_read(priv, REG_VERSION_MSB);
	if (ret < 0)
		goto fail;

	priv->rev |= ret << 8;

If you want it to look slightly nicer:

	int rev_lo, rev_hi;

	rev_lo = reg_read(priv, REG_VERSION_LSB);
	rev_hi = reg_read(priv, REG_VERSION_MSB);
	if (rev_lo < 0 || rev_hi < 0) {
		ret = rev_lo < 0 ? rev_lo : rev_hi;
		goto fail;
	}

	priv->rev = rev_lo | rev_hi << 8;

I'm happy to commit such a change after this patch to clean it up, or if
you want to regenerate your patch 2 and post /just/ that incorporating
this change.
