In general, doing an early:
        if (!condition)
                return;

is a pattern we prefer in the kernel. Setting up the assumptions at
the beginning of the function makes it easier to follow the code flow,
and saves a level of indentation.

It's a matter of taste though, and this function has only one level.
So, either way is OK. Just mentioning it.

I think this is broken? If wsize is something else than 1 or 2, you'll
do a one-byte write but advance the buffer pointer with a different
amount.

It'll be fairly tricky to debug if this ever happens (it shouldn't,
but still). This is why I added a WARN_ON_ONCE() in my patch instead.
