Don't make a wrapper function for another wrapper function, just spell
the thing out in the code, makes it much easier to debug and maintain
over time.
It will also cause you to rename "this_device" to "dev" to make it
easier to type :)

Why call this at all?

Wrong error value, please return -EFAULT.

Same thing here, -EFAULT.

Unless you can verify likely/unlikely actually makes a difference in
your code, don't ever use it. Hint, it's not needed here.
