I can agree to have both basic/extend register
if driver need to switch its behavior.
But this case, there is nothing to do on driver side.
In other words, SoC always need to use extend
register if it has.
I don't know why datasheet is indicating both area.
Maybe it is because for Gen3 all-in ? I'm not sure.

Anyway, Simon, can you agree about it ?
Having both basic/extend register is just noise for driver.

Best regards
