I believe the capitalization of the last feature is "Hot-Join"

It's not entirely clear from this sentence if it's the controller or the
driver that doesn't support these features. Please update to make it
clear.

Commit message says that QUP doesn't support IBI, so what is this?

Also, why "keep as dummy"?

Don't you want a non-relaxed write here, to clarify that the ordering of
this write and the previous are significant?


As above, the commit message says the controller doesn't do IBI, so why
are we enabling IBI interrupts? (Just guessing based on the IRQ names)

As far as I can tell, the master_data is private to the controller
driver, and the only thing I can find you do with it to free it again on
detach.

Am I missing something or can these 4 optional functions be removed?
