I am already lost what v keeps...

Perhaps

		switch (FIELD_GET(DFH_VERSION, v)) {
		case 1:
			...
			break;

No __func__ for dev_dbg(). Dynamic debug has this feature at runtime!

How about?

Yes, the intention is kernel doc. Thanks for the feedback. I
will fix this and add the newline as suggested below.

This one tends to be expanded in the future, so I would keep it switch case.

I'm okay with using the switch statement, but how about the following?

 		switch (FIELD_GET(DFH_VERSION, readq(base))) {
                 case 1:
 			...
 			break;
 		}

Would it make sense to print an error if a newer version than 1 is detected?
BTW, what is the expected value when DFHv1 is not detected? Zero
or an arbitrary number?

Hi Geert,

Currently, DFHs that are not version 1 should be version 0. I will fill in 
the switch statement to do nothing for version 0, and the default case 
will print a warning of an unexpected version.

Thanks for the feedback.

I don't think we should just remove the entire comments here, we still
need these quirks for DFHv0.

Please help describe how the new irq params works with existing irq
capable features. Some possible cases?

If version = v1, has irq param, no feature quirk.
If version = v1, no irq param, has feature quirk.
If version = v1, has irq param, has feature quirk.

Thanks,
