Right. I missed the point that it was not disabled at all!. I will rearrange it

Thanks for all the comments. I am planning to send out a v6 soon. 
Between, did you get a chance to take a look at patch #4 (HiSilicon erratum one) ? 
Appreciate if you could take a look and let me know before v6.

Thanks,
Shameer
