OK

No, I don't think we want individual properties like that. There is
ongoing discussion about this:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221214095342.937303-1-alexander.stein@ew.tq-group.com/

Feedback is welcomed - there. Don't create your own half-baked delays
for different hardware designs.

Best regards,
