Hi Sudeep,

Indeed, I won't ask you to merge patches 1, 8 and 9, they need refactoring and
a separate patchset.

Vendor commands are not necessary for Amlogic, this is a nice to have since they
have a "user" command that can be extended by a firmware loaded by u-boot.

Could you review the following patches and I'll post a reduced v2 ASAP.

Thanks,
Neil
