Oh, I am planning to contribute such quirks as MIPI DisCo properties for 
the next revision of the document (along with a capability to disable a 
link). This was not intended to remain Linux- or Intel-specific.

Not following, sorry. I didn't mean that only firmware can set them.

All of these sdw_master_prop can come from firmware or be hard-coded by 
a driver for a specific implementation. The point is that they need to 
be provided to the bus core so that it knows what to do.

If you look at DisCo today, we ignore the settings for the Slave 
(unfortunately all wrong in BIOS) so the Slave properties are hard-coded 
in drivers, but do use most of the firmware information for the Master, 
so it's really firmware and/or driver that can set these properties.
