Hi Tom, thanks for catching and fixing it!

I applied the patch, built the driver, and run some tests on my HW setup -
no regression so far. But I think the fix can be improved even more, by
reducing the number of questions to one in the successful case where the
performance matters. Please see the proposal below inline.

Please consider the below code to reduce the number of questions to one in the "likely" case
and two in the worst-case scenario.

	if (ret != len) {
	        if (ret >= 0)
                        return -EIO;
                else
                        return ret;
        }

The same.
