I must admit that I didn't look very carefully in the previous changes to this same code. Anyway, we already have a similar functionality where we can power the chip on without uploading the firmware. We have the gpio_power file in debugfs to handle that. By using it, you can easily power the chip on without uploading and running the firmware, so other tools (such as RTTT and the calibrator) can take over.
