You seem to submit the same type of changes throughout very
different subsystems. And you do it w/o thinking and testing.
If you would have looked at rv8803_write_reg() you would have
seen that it prints an error in case of failure. So your
patch achieves nothing.
You got David Miller upset already and it looks like you
want to achieve the same with other maintainers too.
I'd strongly suggest that you stop sending patches until
you better understand the kernel code.
