As in my other patches, thanks!

Because they're supposed to be fixed values? It won't change in runtime.
Is there any reason why I shouldn't do that?

ACK. What should I do with the retval then?

There are some in:
- sun4i_gpadc_read called for read_raws => return which error code (or
-ret only?)?
- sun4i_gpadc_runtime_suspend => return value of ret, but that would
cancel the suspend right?
- sun4i_gpadc_runtime_resume => return value of ret, but that would
cancel resume right?
- sun4i_gpadc_probe in the error gotos => probe already failing so do we
actually care if regmap_update_bits fails? If yes, what's the expected
behaviour?
- sun4i_gpadc_remove => return value of ret, but that would mean the
remove failed right?

ACK for all typos.
Thanks!
