This `xnfc' variable is never used anywhere inside this function.

This `offset' variable is never used anywhere inside this function. The
call is unnecessary and should be removed.

Beyond being useless, it also is harmful. When applying this patch on
top of a v5.1-rc2, this can be found in dmesg:

After removing the call (and the variable), this particular problem goes away.

This `val' variable is never used anywhere inside this function.

Even after fixing these, I couldn't make this driver work on actual
hardware.

The very same device works fine with an older version of the out-of-tree
driver based on a v4.14 tree. Thus far I couldn't figure out why it
fails like this.

I'd appreciate if you could Cc me on future postings of this driver.
