What?

You just crashed your device with no chance of recovery.  NEVER put a
BUG() or BUG_ON() call in a driver, that is just rude in irresponsible.

Especially with a return 0; after it, that's just trying to outsmart the
compiler warning, which is extra foolish.

This happens in other places in this code as well, please fix.
