The patch you've committed to your for-v4.19 branch has this hunk:

@@ -269,8 +275,12 @@ static long via_read_time(void)

                if (++count > 10)
                        break;

That looks bogus to me, since result.idata is a long.

Also, the following hunk seems a bit pointless (?)

+               __u32 idata;
        } data;
        __u8 temp;
 

But if data.idata needs to be changed to __u32 here, why not change the 
same struct member in via_read_time() also?
