   The manuals I have indeed say we need to check CSR.OPS... But we only
need to wait iff we transfer from the operation mode to the config mode...

   Hm, that long list does look weird...

   It doesn't look like ravb_wait() is needed here...
   And besides, this pattern seems repetitive and worth factoring out into
a single function.

   Again, ravb_wait() call doesn't seem necessary here...
