Sounds good, those are easy changes and make sense. Since I'm a newbie, I don't know any better sometimes when I copy other code that may not be as safe.
The same thing, of_get_property(np, "current-speed", NULL);, is done right above my code I added. Should the other code in the driver using the same method be fixed, or just my patch?
