Can't the old driver just have a compat section in them? Like I did with serial
stuff:
1) rename the internal functions to ${driver}_${function_name} from pure
${function_name} and introduce section which behaves as a wrapper (implement
${function_name} calling ${driver}_${function_name} ).
2) Add your DM goo, implement #ifdef around it so either the compat section or
DM section is enabled.
How does that work? It's much cleaner.
