AH! I didn't notice! I booted the board a few times only, maybe it
didn't trigger (it was a Salvator-X H3, not an XS, but it shouldn't
make any difference).

Indeed... I haven't found a characterization of the delay required to
release registers from their POR values after power up, so I guess we
could read the register value again with a little timeout between
reads (whose value would be arbitrary, anyway..)
I'm a bit suprised though.. The max9611 chips are powered from the
+3.3V rail, and should have exited POR long before the driver gets
to probe, isn't it?
Thanks for reporting and sorry for having missed it in first place
