In ACPI mode it's enumerated as part of the GPU but beyond that I don't
know how it works and haven't been able to find out. I am guessing at
this point that the extra node in the acpidump under the GPU gives the
base address, but no idea where the IRQ comes from. Power management on
the BYT devices via PCI is broken anyway so that bit shouldn't matter.

The firmware has to exactly match. If you look in the atomisp code
you'll see that there are offsets which basically appear to be memory
addresses in the firmware as built that time.

Yep.

The Android upgrade kit for your device. So your platforms equivalent

I spent 6 months trying, but even though you can go to your product
vendors website and download it I've not been able to 8(.

Really appreciate the work you are doing on this.
