First:
Adding yourself to file for such trivial change will make kernel bloated (just
count all the check_region and similar depredated stuff... how many entries
does that make?).
Second:
Patch is wrong
check_region returns !=0 when fails, request_region returns 0 on failure.
Also, you missed already existing request_region and release_region.
