Did you submit a real patch to do so? Note, I know I do not read "RFC" patches for the most part as that implies the submitter does not feel it is ready to be merged, when I have other patches that submitters _do_ feel are ready to be merged that are still left to review. > > > Can you please help me deciding in which subsystem I should implement > > > it, if not mux-controller can it go in drivers/misc ? > > > > Why not mux?

Try it and see! We don't normally do "what if I did this" type of review, we want to see patches that actually work. thanks, greg k-h
