I'll comment on this 17-day-old patch.

Jean, this illustrates why explicitly steering people *away* from lkml or
from any other mailing list is a poor idea.  If Bart has posted an updated
version to the i2c list then I end up reviewing an outdated patch, and
probably duplicating other people's comments.

googling for 'PCF8575 Assche' indicates that he has not sent an updated
patch.  Perhaps he was discouraged by your quite unconstructive response.


Your email client is wordwrapping patches.  Fortunately only the patch
headers were wrapped so it still applies OK, but some reconfiguration is
neded for next time, please.


Please remove all the LINUX_VERSION_CODE tests and target only the current
mainline tree.


yeah, I agree with me ;)  It really messes the code up.


ick, they're nested two-deep!


Apart from that it looks OK to me.  I'll add the patch as-is to the -mm
tree so that it does not get lost.  Thanks.
