Good!

Yes, this (and a da9210) PMICs are used on one of the boards, I'm working
with. I asked your marketing department for a da9210 datasheet, they tried
to check with the board vendor, who is also my customer for this project,
and so far they haven't been able to establish my involvement in this
development. Have you also got a da9210 Linux driver? Do I have to wait
for your marketing department clarifying my affiliation or could you make
that driver available to me too? Or do you mean you might have a newer
version of this driver available internally too?

Thanks
Guennadi
