Fixed.

I'm not sure what you mean, can you please explain?

The delay is to allow a power ramp up, I have added a comment.

Apparently the mutex is to protect enable/disable, I don't think it's
required and I will remove it.

Thanks, fixed.

Fixed.

Added.

It is part of the vendor's kernel, they specifically added it to
ensure vcom is set on resume.

I have fixed the variable type.

Removed.
