Povilas,


As I understand it, that code has never been changed over the last years.
Most probably these features have never worked. I tried going back as far
as I could, and the issues remained. That is not bitrot.

It is possible that a different chip worked fine, and that it was assumed
that this code would also work for other Genesys Logic chips.

The only way forward is getting a data sheet.
