Oh, I found the problem by just looking at the code with clear mind:

This if should be deleted completely, because we don't want to fail on every
probe :)
Sorry for noise... :(
Greg, can you take first 15 patches, if they look good and then I will send
fixed version of 16? AFAIU, you are ok with taking part of the series
Please fix up and resend the whole series as our tools work best by
taking the whole thing.
That way I "know" you tested them all :)
It is true, but there was small error on testing side from me this time.
I am testing with qemu and I forgot to copy new driver to qemu's shared
folder (it was busy day or I was already asleep, idk). It resulted to
testing old version of the driver. Next day I've tested new changes on
top of this series and found the problem :)
I am sorry for kind of lying, i've already fixed it locally, so it won't
happen again
With regards,
Pavel Skripkin
