What is at I2C address 0x4c?  Might be useful to have a comment in
there explaining what this patch actually does.  This assumes you
know/understand what it does - if you don't then a comment saying "I
don't know why this is needed but my board doesn't work right without
it" is just as valuable.

Without fully understanding the nature of this patch and what cards
that it actually effects, it may make sense to move your board into a
separate case statement.  Generally it's bad form to make changes like
against other cards without any testing against those cards (otherwise
you can introduce regressions).  Stick it in its own case statement,
and users of the other boards can move their cards into that case
statement *after* it's actually validated.
