IIUC, this patchset doesn't break original functionality of the driver. 
It will work like before with 1-byte opcodes. So I don't think it is the 
responsibility of this patchset to enhance the driver. It didn't work 
before with 2-byte opcodes, it won't work now. IMO this should be a 
separate, independent change.
