   I was unable to find the RZ/G3 manuals on ther Renesas' website... :-(

  I don't argue with the (safety) checking of CSR.OPS, I was just pointing
out that the R-Car gen3 manual says that only transfer from operation to
the config mode happens after a considerable amount of time, other transfers
do happen immediately after updating CCC.OPC.

   Just checked or waited on?
   The R-car does have a specific algorithm for transferring from the operation
to the reset mode (you need to set CC.DTSR first and then wait for CSR.DTS to
clear before updating CCC.OPC)...

  Yes, please remove the waiting.
