Hi Wentao,

Thanks for your patch!

There is no need to print an error message, as wilc_sdio_cmd52()
already does that. Same with the existing wilc_sdio_read_reg(), and
with all of its callers, which leads to multiple error messages for
a single failure.

This is not the commit you are looking for...

Looks like the AI wasn't trained properly.  Please try to (at least)
test-compile your patches.

Likewise.
