nit: AFAIK when not strictly necessary, it's preferable to let the
compiler decide to inline a function or not, instead of adding the
inline keyword.

nit: This could be probably changed into

	if (!of_machine_is_compatible("samsung,exynos3250"))
		return;

Other than these two minor nitpicks the patch looks good, so if there is
no reason to resend, feel free to ignore them. Although I think it might
be necessary to rebase it on Kukjin's for-next.
