Hard to say without knowing AMD roadmap for that. If they intend to have an ISH-like approach in the end with reports and descriptors provided by the firmwares, then it makes sense to keep this architecture for the first revision of devices. If not, then yes, this is probably overkill compared to what needs to be do= ne. Sandeep, can you explain to us why you think using HID is the best way? On a side note, I don't necessarily like patch 4/5 with the debugfs interface. It's adding a kernel API for no gain, and we should already have the debug API available in the various subsystems involved.
