The 'bonus' in all this is that if you get it wrong, it's the very likely success case that goes sideways and it should instantly explode. While all the unlikely error cases should all just work -- famous last words etc.. > Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Thanks! > Mind if I try this series to convert a more "normal" driver to see how > it works with that?

I picked code I was familiar with, but it would ofc. be good to have others give it a spin too.
