Why do you need this...

...and this?

You can simply do

	for (i = 0; i < data->chip_info->num_chip_id; i++) {
		if (chip_id == data->chip_info->chip_id[i])
			break;
	}
	if (i < data->chip_info->num_chip_id) {

Besides lack of spaces...

...this at least should be kmalloc_array() and on top maybe something from
overflow.h will be needed.

Yeah, this const makes a little sense...

...but not this :-)

What I'm wondering is why it's int and not u8 / u16
(as it seems only a byte value there).

unsigned.
