40k isn't large - please include such patches in the email.

Not a great choice of function names, IMO.  Nicer to have "isicom" in the
name.  Your call.

We usually do this:

	switch (...) {
	case N:

eep.   udelay()

more eep.

Is this the right place to be performing permission checks?

It's just as well this code if ifdefed out.  Avoid using return statements
buried deep in the logic.  It's just asking for resource leaks, now or in
the future.  Aim for a simgle return point per function, or at least keep
all the returns right at the end of the function.

unneeded braces.  embedded `return'

Somewhat risky identifiers for a header file..
