Yes, the device is connected by HPI interface. All registers are classified purpose.
When app want to access one register, it must specify bank ID in which the register be

En, this is the method what I want to use. The question is all registers are all accessed by
the only ioctl cmd. If one process want to do jobs that need to access a series of registers,
the performance will affected internally due to frequent user-kernel-space switch.
So, if we use mutex/semaphore in ioctl level directly, is the performance will become worse?
Is this true? Is there any better solutions for this?
