Hi,
I will look into it.

Ok done, altough even if in general I like the bit manipulation macros because they make the code easier to read/understand, I find it less obvious by using GENMASK in this case IMMO.

I have converted this section to use device_property_count_u32() and device_property_read_u32_array(). Is that Ok?

I am not sure what you mean by this?
