It could be, but I don't see that we ever needs to do that - at least not before we have written some other non-zero values to them (through the helper functions). > > This patch initializes pwr|clk|datactrl_reg variables with their > hardware values while probing. Hmm, so in principle this change seems quite okay, but I am hesitant to pick it up - unless it really addresses a problem that you have observed. The reason is, this change may lead to avoiding to re-write the register with the same value it got during boot - and who knows what is best here.
