Hi Sumitra,
Nice first attempt. However, you should be working in the drivers/staging
directory for now.

Also, specific to the following change, the device definitions may be useful to
people who have those devices and can be added to the driver by simply removing
the #if 0 condition. Hence, these commented blocks are likely retained due to
same reason.

Thank you,
Deepak.
