Thanks for this series and your patience.

While I can see why it also helps reviewing to send it as a series of
multiple patches, I consider applying the driver itself as just one
hunk. I am not decided on this yet.

I have a few comments, especially about recovery. I replied to the
relevant patches with more detail.

Also, are you (or someone from your company) willing to maintain the
driver? Then, an addition to MAINTAINERS would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
