Hi Simon

Thanks for pointing out those errors. I fixed them and sent another patch.
For the int value returned by get_output_base_addr, it still works because The expected addresses are 0x2010xxxx so they are still positive for an int.

These minor changes came with one patch from our side and it is related to the change due to the code that is not seen here in the official Linux repo. So I am hoping to push them all together.
For easier maintenance from our side :)

The same reason as above.
