Thanks for the suggestion.
My understanding was that the 'Gen2' was planned for removal in the
long term, and we should have paved the road for a
media-controller-only version of the driver. But I admit I didn't even
try to re-use that code part, I'll give your suggestions a spin, if
this won't prevent future removal of the non-mc part of the driver.

I see two occurencies each of this enumeration members in this patch.
I left them un-cut above.
