oh, yes, thanks

ah, wonderful catch, Sam. I break those indeed.

I said in the commit message and subject that I'd like to use the full
FIFO level mask rather than just a partial mask. On gs101 at least, that
register field is on 9 bits, but as the code is now, we consider that
register on 7 bits. For gs101 the FIFO size is always 64 bytes, thus
indirectly the fifo_lvl_mask is always 0x7f.

Unfortunately I'll drop this patch because I don't have access to all
the SoC datasheets, thus I can't tell for sure if that register is
always 9 bits wide. s3c2443 and s3c6410, which have the rx-lvl-offset
set to 13, use just 0x7f masks. That's a pitty.
