Ah, sorry about being a bit terse.
Both bit 6 & 7 are read only, and are probably best read after an IRQ.

Looking at the dt-binding patch, it does not seem to list any
interrupts. So that should be added. I think the irq support from [3]
& [4] can be pretty much copied.
Then we can come back and replace the polling code with the IRQ driven
code from [2].
