Hi Dinghao,

Thank you for the patch.

I wonder how many bugs we have today, and how many bugs will keep
appearing in the future, due to this historical design mistake :-(

This change looks good to me, but we also need a similar change in the
vsp1_device_get() function if I'm not mistaken. Could you combine both
in the same patch ?
