I should have stated that I don't know the units for delay_ctrl. The
5-bit field has a max value of 31 which seems far too small for
picoseconds. Unfortunately, the documentation from the SoC vendor does
not give anymore details about what the value represents.

Andrew Lunn replied [1] to my cover letter that it is best to hard code
the field to 0 (which is the hardware reset value) if I don't know what
the units are for delay_ctrl. The hardware that I have works okay with
delay_ctrl of 0, so it seems these new vendor properties are not needed.

Thanks,
Drew
