Please NEVER crash the machine in a driver like this, it's bad and can
cause problems.  Yes, I know you are just moving it from the lines
below:

But really, it should not be in the driver at all.  Please remove it, at
the most, do a WARN_ON() so that someone can see the problem and at
least report it.

Actually, what is this checking?  How can someone recover from it?  Who
is this check for?  The developer of this driver?  Another driver?
Hardware developer?  End user?  Who would be able to fix the problem if
this happens?

As it is, I can't take it, sorry.
