This says _what_ the patch does, but we can see that from the diff.  You
should describe _why_ we are doing what we are doing, so that everyone
understands the need for the change.

Also, can you add something like:
	This fixes a number of issues where short reads were not
	properly handled by the driver.

Take a look at "The canonical patch format" in the kernel file,
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for a description of how to write good
changelogs that we can understand 5 years in the future when we have to
look back at the files.

Again, why isn't set_register() now rewritten to just be:

static int set_register(pegasus_t *pegasus, __u16 indx, __u8 data)
{
	return set_registers(pegasus, indx, 1, data);
}

Much easier to show that it's all converted properly :)
