Back in February, Andres sent out a patch "cs553x-gpio: add AMD
CS5535/CS5536 GPIO driver support". AFACIT that patch does the same
thing that this one does, but differently. IIRC it had a great string
of weird-Kconfig-related build errors and I eventually dropped it.
What's the story here?
Thanks.
My story is that I've since switched employers twice since Feb, and will
be resubmitting the patch now that sanity has returned to my life.
I'm planning to get to it within the next week.
As far as Tobias's driver, one major difference between our drivers is
that mine doesn't grab the entire PCI device. This is because other
drivers (ie, the MFGPT driver) will want to share the PCI device.
