We don't want to take the 'else' branch ever, so this isn't any safer
than the original code. So maybe something like this:

if (M64_HAS(LT_LCD_REGS)) {
	if (WARN_ON(index >= ARRAY_SIZE(lt_lcd_regs)))
		return;
	...
} else {
	...
}

But aty_ld_lcd() still needs to return something even if the index
is bogus. Either all ones or all zeroes I guess. Which one is
better? I don't know. Not sure what the hardware gives you when trying
to read an invalid register.
