I see.. It's probably most safer then to keep the _typed() version.
However, I understand not breaking working system is of course
desirable, but this would not be a userspace breakage, but a driver
change that requires other associated drivers to be updated
accordingly, like it happens at every release. I however fear a
change like this if blindly ported to a BSP would break it, and yes,
doing that in this single commit won't help identifying where the
issue comes from. Sorry Fabrizio for the bad suggestion, you should
keep the _typed version and eventually switch to the new one in a
separate commit if you feel like to.
