Rob,

Yes, that definitively makes sense but I fear that this rework will
delay again the introduction of a couple of products and the work we
have to do to enable DT for other drivers.
The AIC and GPIO will definitively need a rework but I cannot start this
now and as I have a nearly working solution, I would prefer to start
this task later...

Best regards,
