Hari has taken on the very difficult task of synchronizing our out-of-kernel development branch with the in-kernel code.  These two code bases have drifted apart quite a bit because of the difficulty of translating our out-of-kernel changes into the in-kernel driver which uses completely different symbolic register constants.

Can you explain this in a little bit more details? what's the source
of the need to use two different sets of symbolic register constants?
