Oops! I guess we'll need these two for now at least.

We don't really have support for PDAF anyway (I'd expect this to be
documented for a driver, for instance) so I presume currently for
PDAF-variants the configuration is about "correcting" the PDAF pixels?

The problem seems to be worse on ACPI systems as there's a single HID only.
