I saw that you added a flag named use_polling, but I didn't see
how a user can set it (nothing was added in the device tree). Could you
explain what do you meant by "Polling mode is still supported" ?

Could you wrap the commit log at ~80 columns?

I made only a few comments because your patch is hard to review.
Could you split your patch in smaller and incremental part?

However I made few comments inline

Is it really a debug message?  shouldn't it be an error message?

Shouldn't you do something with the return value of this function?
