You're right the device is not in the field yet. I'm sending this driver
upstream before the hardware is publicly available, so people can start
using it when the devices are available. And I've gathered quite a lot
of useful feedback already.

It's hard to tell what will change in the future versions of firmware. I
expect that at least some specifics will stay.

I understand, but the idea was to support the hardware that is not
available yet, but will be in the future.

I'll be sending the new versions of the cr50 driver patches shortly.

Thanks,
Andrey
