That's OK for me.

I will wait until the driver is ready and merged, and then start working
on WPCM450 integration and making ECE optional.

Regarding WPCM450 being EOL, I'm aware, and I don't want to hold up your
team's work on newer SoCs. But I personally find this old SoC interesting
and I want to share driver code with newer SoCs where possible.


Thank you,
Jonathan
