First, read the data sheets for both chips to find out how 
similar/different they are.  If similar, modify or copy the ks8695 
driver.  If they're significantly different, you might find a better 
match for a template.

No matter what, you need to understand your hardware.

Please note that the KS8695 driver will be changing soon because the API 
that it uses is deprecated.  There are plenty of examples of drivers 
that use the preferred methods.

regards,
Ben
