This will give wrong value, so preserving 0 as plain decimal is fine.

Any comments on this?

Besides there are other cases you haven't answered on, so I assume you agreed
to change as suggested.

The problem here is that you checked not for error code, readl() doesn't return
an error. So semantic issue.

No. You need to have something like this:

	value = readl(...);
	if (value == 0)
		return 0;

this will keep proper meaning of each number and variable, while compiler may
optimize it.

Is it a problem?

Is it a problem?
