This is _really_ confusing Robert.
Why having two 'From:' clauses ?
Who wrote the patch in the first place ? You or Grant ?
End result is :

AX_CMD_WRITE_MEDIUM_MODE register correctly.

which may be different from the negotiation result. So do this first.

I guess Grant wrote the patch, but attribution is wrong.
