Should this patch be merged with the previous one to keep the RDACM2x
and max9286 usage aligned?

I expect it won't compile fail, but it would fail a test (if bisecting
was testing the capture).

Seems to look ok, given the previous patch as a dependency:

Oh - wow, now I see why we definitely need to store both the initial and
the current value.
