Seems to compile and modpost w/o missing symbols as tristate:

paul@yow-builder:~/git/linux-head$ ls -l ../arm-build/drivers/mfd/as3722*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 paul paul 13010 Jul  6 12:30 ../arm-build/drivers/mfd/as3722.ko
-rw-rw-r-- 1 paul paul  1937 Jul  6 12:28 ../arm-build/drivers/mfd/as3722.mod.c
-rw-rw-r-- 1 paul paul  3820 Jul  6 12:29 ../arm-build/drivers/mfd/as3722.mod.o
-rw-rw-r-- 1 paul paul 11292 Jul  6 12:13 ../arm-build/drivers/mfd/as3722.o
paul@yow-builder:~/git/linux-head$ 

...so I'll drop this patch in favour of the one line tristate conversion in v2.

Paul.
