I am not sure if you understand how IRC works... You sent me message on
IRC about this topic and shortly after you quit. So how am I supposed to
send reply? IRC does not work like that...

I really don't know your SoCs. What about Zynq? You keep using here
names all over the place, but I am not Xilinx maintainer.
