Okay managed to get this done. Apart from the two issues identified didn't
find anything so applied and pushed to a branch
"topic/slave_caps_device_control_fix"

Today did some compile tests and found few warnings, were trivial but I
am worried about the testing of this code. Has anyone tested this, if so
which platforms are covered Since I pushed base branch last night, Feng's
bot covered it and all was OK. Looks like Feng's bot doesn't have wide
coverage of arm platforms, wasn't there one run by arm guys which tries to
test and boot, if so can we get this tested there please.

So bit sceptical for merging now. I will send the patches which I have
applied on top of this

Thanks
