Yes, I can add the open source also but like to be in incremental 
change. Not together with open drain.
We can go with:
- open drain core driver support.
- open drain sysfs interface support
- open source core driver support
- open source sysfs interface.

I have already changes for the first 2 which we can review/apply,
Meanwhile I will work on open source support.

Does it look good?
