Don't negate the 'mci.*' operands and use the logical AND operator to
simplify the return statement.
No functional changes intended.

It actually would decrease readability since every if-statement tells you one condition when registers are not valid. Negating the last one makes this harder to understand. But in general please do not send patches like this, which do not come with a significant improvement.
