Simon's liked splitting it up but he also proposed this alternative:

rf69_set_sync_operation(spi, true/false);

but I removed the "_operation" because I think it doesn't add anything.

To me it's just weird that "_enable" disables anything.  I really
prefer just splitting it up.  I don't think it will bloat the code.
But I'm also fine with:

rf69_set_sync(spi, true/false)
rf69_set_amp(spi, true/false)
rf69_set_crc(spi, true/false)

Anyway, I feel like I'll like whatever Simon does.  Some of these
things, you can't tell how they'll look until the end until you try.
Let's wait until we see a patch before we debate any more.

regards,
dan carpenter
