Thanks for splitting this off from the functional changes. This will
need some more explanations and discussion. In particular the comment
changes look wrong to me. Also please don't butcher code just because
checkpatch.pl may warn about line length at this early stage.

A good catch in there was the unsigned casts, which are no longer
necessary since the regmap conversion, so we should just squash that
into the earlier commits.

Note that I used to run checkpatch.pl as git commit hook:
http://blog.vmsplice.net/2011/03/how-to-automatically-run-checkpatchpl.html
But since some git update that started to break git rebase -i in case of
false positives (with rebase stopping and on trying to continue commits
unintentionally getting squashed), so I deactivated it again and don't
manually check each commit I stage anymore, in favor of slowly
completing implementations to a working point.

Regards,
Andreas
