Hi Bjorn,
Can we utilize the of_add_property() call to add the "tx-fifo-resize"
property from the dwc3_qcom_register_core() API? That way at least the
above concern would be addressed.
I'm not too familiar with the ACPI design, but I do see that the
dwc3-qcom does have an array carrying some DWC3 core properties. Looks
like we can add the tx-fifo-resize property here too.
static const struct property_entry dwc3_qcom_acpi_properties[] = {
PROPERTY_ENTRY_STRING("dr_mode", "host"),
{}
};
Thanks
