Hi Bjorn,

Thank you for your comment.

I see. I'll accept your suggestion for the commit log.

Certainly this isn't unified. I'll fix it.

Yes.
Now I know the difference about between legacy and non-legacy SoC,
however, currently the driver doesn't have any non-legacy SoC support.

Agreed. The test for non-legacy SoC is necessary.
So I'll remove 'is_legacy' and related coded, and rewrite this driver
to support only legacy device.

And I'll remember [1] when adding non-legacy support.

Indeed. This 'readl' isn't unnecessary.

Agreed. I'll rewrite it next.
