Hi Krzysztof,
Thank you for your feedback.
You're absolutely right about the operation on the 00 register. That was
indeed a mistake on my part, and it was not my intention to clear the
GLOBAL_CTRL0 register. It was only meant to serve as an example.
I also now understand that importing a data block in this manner doesn't
align with the design philosophy of device trees. Moving forward, I will
abstract each possible tuning configuration into separate properties.
Since there are quite a few properties to handle, this will result in a
larger codebase.
Given the additional work required, I will take a few more days to
revise the patch and resubmit it.
Thank you again for your valuable input.
Best regards,
Yasin Lee
