The general rule is not to depend on the bootloaders at all. The reason is pretty simple: it is hard to update bootloaders, while it is relatively easy to update the kernel. If the hardware team issues any kind of changes to the programming tables, the kernel will get them earlier than the bootloader. > > Signed-off-by: Qiang Yu <quic_qianyu@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Wenbin Yao <quic_wenbyao@xxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-qmp-pcie.c | 91 +++++++++++++++--------- > 1 file changed, 58 insertions(+), 33 deletions(-) > -- With best wishes Dmitry
