Is this the only use of the PCC type information you have or do you plan to
use it for something other than the validation.
Just for sake of argument, I can say all users of PCC must then do the
similar validation. I don't know where to draw the line here.
Ideally I would expect the driver to make this transparent and give error
during transmit if not supported.
The driver must be able to work with different PCC type to support variety
of platforms TBH. What is the issue exactly here ? Is this to prevent the
use of Type 4 ? I think we must do something better but I don't know what
that is yet.
