Thanks for pointing out.

Good point.

I don't remember well, but this is result of discussions on the
earlier patchsets.
So, its just an option that somebody may use.

This was done, because few platforms may not have configuration bits to read
status of sda line.. For them skip_sda_polling was required.

Whereas, others would need this to see if we can return early.

Not considering it for this basic version, will mention that.

ditto.

Will surely have a look at it again, before sending another version.

Will fix it.

Hmm.

Thanks for your valuable comments Uwe.

But before i send another version of this patchset, need some inputs from
Wolfram.

@Wolfram and other maintainers: I understand that you have been very
busy all the time, but this patchset is worth having some feedback. Isn't it?

Please share your comments about it, whatever they are...

Many platforms want to use this infrastructure but they are just not
able to do it,
because it hasn't got your acceptance till now.
