Does the XPCS in Wangxun devices have the device identifiers (registers
2 and 3) and the package identifiers (registers 14 and 15) implemented,
and would they be set to an implementation specific value that would
allow their integration into Wangxun devices to be detected?
If the answer to that is yes, it would be preferable to use that
rather than adding a bitarray of flags to indicate various "quirks".
Thanks.
