Agree.

However, client still needs to know the HW-defined value by using
this solution.

I think an easy way for this issue is just removing HW-defined values
from include/soc/mediatek/cmdq.h (but keeping enum), and then mapping
abstract values into real values in driver.
The benefit of this solution is that we can keep interface and leave SoC
specific code into driver.
What do you think?
