correct, but your proposed patch can't be accepted as it is. You need to
handle only 0x0101 and 0x0103 cases, thus putting content of the register into
some variable and use switch/case to make the decision.

Then you're going to replace the 0x0101 and 0x0103 magic numbers with some
meaningful constants which would be perhaps very similar to the ralink_soc
ones, so in the end doing the same, but differently.

Anyway, both approaches are fine with me, do whatever you prefer.

FYI we're talking here about a source file under ramips target, it's not in
the generic directory so it's unlikely, that it would be used in other
targets, that's why I've suggested ralink_soc as the simplest solution.
