+ * PX4IO I2C interface notes:
+ *
+ * Register read/write operations are mapped directly to PX4IO register
+ * read/write operations.
+ *
+ * PX4IO Serial interface notes:
+ *
+ * The MSB of the page number is used to distinguish between read and
+ * write operations. If set, the operation is a write and additional
+ * data is expected to follow in the packet as for I2C writes.
+ *
+ * If clear, the packet is expected to contain a single byte giving the
+ * number of bytes to be read. PX4IO will respond with a packet containing
+ * the same header (page, offset) and the requested data.
+ *
+ * If a read is requested when PX4IO does not have buffer space to store
+ * the reply, the request will be dropped. PX4IO is always configured with
+ * enough space to receive one full-sized write and one read request, and
+ * to send one full-sized read response.
