Not really into one, although if you figure out a way to make that
easily possible feel free to go on, what I meant make them look and read
the same.

Deduplicating the bigger function would be nice to have for the future,
it does not need to happen together in this one.  It will require some
more work to make it "modular" enough to be used by various drivers.
