-TODO for the driver
-------------------------------
-
-- According to the SiLabs' datasheet it is possible to update the
- firmware of the radio chip in the run-time, thus bringing it to the
- most recent version. Unfortunately I couldn't find any mentioning of
- the said firmware update for the old chips that I tested the driver
- against, so for chips like that the driver only exposes the old
- functionality.
-
-
-Parameters exposed over debugfs
--------------------------------
-SI476x allow user to get multiple characteristics that can be very
-useful for EoL testing/RF performance estimation, parameters that have
-very little to do with V4L2 subsystem. Such parameters are exposed via
-debugfs and can be accessed via regular file I/O operations.
-
-The drivers exposes following files:
-
-* /sys/kernel/debug/<device-name>/acf
- This file contains ACF(Automatically Controlled Features) status
- information. The contents of the file is binary data of the
- following layout:
-
- Offset | Name | Description
- ====================================================================
- 0x00 | blend_int | Flag, set when stereo separation has
- | | crossed below the blend threshold
