Yeah, let me look into this further and see if there is any other way possible
as well. I had some patches for DA850 lying around on some older kernels, and I
know that I definitely needed to introduce a variable to distinguish the
programmability of certain CONST registers (C26 and C27 are fixed on Davinci
IIRC). Will need that variable with the current PRU consumer series. Perhaps,
the same PRU type variable can be used for that as well.
