Perhaps better to switch this struct to follow kernel doc in one of
preparatory patches and add the description of this field accordingly.

Not sure I understand the point of & vs. && here.

Since you are using ' < 0' above and below (and I think it doesn't
worth it, i.o.w. you may drop them) here is something interesting
might be returned (actually not, see first part of this sentence).
Should be

return 0;

Please keep them in reversed xmas tree format.

Same comments as per previous function.

Besides all above comments being applicable here...

...I'm wondering if you can use bulk reads of those registers.
Also I'm not sure you need explicit castings.

Ditto.

These are defined as S16_MIN and S16_MAX. Use limits.h.

-ERANGE

Oh, no. Please avoid user space types in the kernel. And what's the
point anyway after checking the range?

It's funny. What does this magic mean?

Timeout loops are much better in a following style

unsigned int iterations = 4;

do {
...
} while (--iterations);
if (!iterations) {
...-ETIMEDOUT...
}

Besides that consider the iopoll.h APIs, perhaps it may be applied here.

And the point of using parentheses? It's not a Lisp language :-)
(Applicable everywhere in your code, the rule of thumb that any
particular comment given by reviewer should be considered against
entire code where it's appropriate)

Okay, looking at this I definitely think that this patch should be
split into a few smaller logically separated pieces like introducing
some helpers to calculate above with them.

Comment is lying. milliCelsius.
