Hello Krzysztof,
Thank you very much for the review, I am planning to address the changes
in my next patch series though I had a question.

The reason for the delay is to ensure the register reset process is
finished before going further. The reference Arduino driver from the
manufacturer also had a delay for the same amount though my hardware
unit worked fine till 5ms delay. Is there some kernel abstraction I
could use to indicate a short delay or will the previous explanation in
a comment above the line do?
Best wishes,
Anshul
