I have already asked this to the dev working on some other MTK codec patchset,
and I think he already posted some proper refactoring (but had more changes to
finish it up). Mind, Yunfei, coordinating the effort on removing all the if/else
please ? We are doing the same code review again and again with every single
individual working on this driver.
