I understand, happened to me as well. Is it okay to CC you on patches? Or are you too far away from it meanwhile? > As for v2 =E2=80=94 I still believe the direction is good.

Real HW setups for testing are a problem, yes. I noticed this, too, when I said I fix the existing drivers. I reconsidered. Fixing them would result in non-trivial changes which need testing SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA transfers. This is too rare, so I'll just focus on the systems I have at hand. Digging in deeper, I found there is enough to fix at the core level anyhow. I won't be bored. > That 1->2 succession you outline below, starting with kernel and kernel-c= lients, > sounds a lot like what I was missing. Yeah, I hope it grows the pool of interested people.
