You could remove the useless cast to (u8 *) too

These could be written without the space after the casts

                priv->reg.phy_info_timer = (uint16_t)*uwrq;

etc...

These tests could be reversed to reduce indentation for the
expected cases

        if (*uwrq < 0 || *uwrq > 0xffff)etc
                return -EINVAL;
        priv->reg.phy_info_timer = (uint16_t)*uwrq;

etc...
