In this driver the variables often start with a "w" for "word", "p" for 
"pointer", "b" for "bool", "by" for "byte" and even "pv" for "pointer 
void"...
If possible I would omit those prefixes for the type as they sometimes 
make the variable names even longer and you need to consider how to 
break lines.

Bye Philipp
