I took some time this morning to mull this over and talk to Dan...

:-(

Truthfully the aux driver does very little except provide a way for admins to
trigger the driver to stop/start accessing the Mailbox.

I suppose a simple sysfs interface could be done to do the same?

I'll let Dan weigh in here.

I'm ok with that too. However, I was thinking that this was not a user ABI.
But it really is. If user space starts writing script to unbind drivers and
then we drop the aux driver support it will break them...

I think I'd like to see that.

Thanks!

The good news is that the main support for the algorithm is now just part of
the pci core as library functions. I think this discussion is a pretty
light lift to move the calls to those around...
