New code should use linux/io.h and linux/uaccess.h.  It won't matter in
this case, but you might pick up some goodies in the future.

Unneeded initialisation.

weird comment placement.

Goes in a .h file.

Isn't this fatal?  If this IO region is in use by some other device, we
don't want this driver poking at it?

release_region()?

undo that device_select()?

No need to shut down any hardware here?
