I guess this should be PATCH 1/2, not PATCH 1/1?

This change from uint64_t to u64 comes from your PATCH 2/2, but it has 
got mixed into this patch too.  That makes it impossible to apply both 
of your patches.

These BUG() to WARN_ON(1) changes are good.

There is no need for the patch to adjust the whitespace on that line. 
Ideally, the 'NITIO_INPUT_SEL_REG(cidx)' should line up with 'counter' 
on the previous line, but that would take the line over 80 characters. 
The current amount of whitespace is a compromise, but there is no need 
to change it.
