This driver assumes that the framework will call client->tx_prepare()
first, which satisfies (b).  It then assumes controller->send_data()
will be invoked, which will send the platform specific
signal/command/target code, which then satisfies (a).

In what way does it assume they are the same?

How do you think this should be set and use these?

Good question.  Probably not, but I guess we'd need a flag for that.

Currently we only print the returning message.  If you want me to put
it in a userspace file too, that's not an issue.
