It might make sense to have this run-time configurable/switchable via
L1CTL or some other means.

It would be much appreciated if you could bring it into a state where it
can cleanly coexist with the other existing code, at which point it
would become mergeable.  I can see two options:

1) make the functionality available but not enabled by default, so a
   L1CTL command can configure + enable your code at the user option

2) really introduce a new firmware build target.  It's possible, but we
   already have too many firmware images we build for each hardware
   target, and I'd prefer to see that number shrinking rather than
   growing.

Regards,
	Harald
