No problem :-). Thanks also for your reviews and testing. It makes my life easier.

This patch will not go in. I agree with your statement: "If that is the case,
wouldn't it make more sense to have separate drivers, one per functionality,
plus an mfd driver to bind them all together ?". Especially because there is
practically no code re-usage...

I still have this patch in a seprate folder. So yes that one is also still on my radar.
But since I am not completely happy with some of the sysfs attribute-namings, and since
some of the code would be in the sysfs core part, I put the patch aside till after I
complete the sysfs code. (But I want to do the windond stuff first).

Kind regards,
Wim.
