My main issue here is we are adding to the "staging" todo,
a list of tasks that are relevant to all drivers, not those
in staging alone.

Please break this into a simple patch removing the gpio stuff
that is no longer relevant and a second patch to propose additions.
That way I can pick up the uncontroversial part and we can talk
further about whether it makes sense to put system wide TODO entries
in here.

Thanks,

Jonathan
