That's ok, I understand that this new subsystem is moving fast.
By the way, that's why I've proposed an HWMON version of the TS-5500
ADC driver in the new set of patches for the TS-5500 support
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/19/220, which has no comment yet). As it
is integrated as part of this platform and functional at the moment,
those patches could be applied initially, then a future patch could
move the ADC driver from HWMON to IIO.
This discussion could continue on the TS-5500 patches request if you
prefer. What do you think?
Regards,
Vivien.
