For the open source community, EUD enablement means they will only get EUD ports
enumerated on the host and nothing else. There is no public info on how to use
EUD nor are there any tools to make use of it. So what is the purpose of
upstreaming it in the first place?

If the goal is to use EUD only by Qcom employees or customers who have signed
NDA, then you can just supply them the out-of-tree EUD patches and tools to work
with. There is absolutely no need to upstream the driver support.

So for this series and any other future EUD patches,

I'm really tempted to send a patch to remove the EUD driver altogether, but I'll
just wait for the response before doing so.
