Yes, this is required to be done. Will fix it.

I don't know which specific codes you were talking about.
Overall the driver needs to parse each argument from the user command.
For example: "r iomem 0xff00c020 40", the driver needs parsing out:
r 		- read (and default width 4 bytes)
iomem		- I/O memory
0xff00c020	- the start address to read
40		- length to read
