Maybe that for that minor misuse of the definition of "global variable" it 
isn't worth to redo three patches. If I were you, I'd wait for feedback from 
Greg K-H and then I'd act accordingly. 

But, at my first read of your patch, I didn't notice that when you return the 
error from within the block starting at the "err:" label, "ret" is always set 
as "-ENODEV".

So, why not simply "return -ENODEV;" and get rid of the "ret" variable?

Thanks,

Fabio
