were going to rip out the EEPROM code. In any case, the best fix would
be to rebase the two series that are remaining and move any "rip out
things like eeprom support" patches to prior to the ioctl patches and
make it so that they rip out the write interface version of it instead,
and then squash a second copy of the ioctl removal into this patch.

Yes, this would look best

The end result will end up being the exact same code so I don't have a problem doing that.
Perhaps it would be better if I just combine the two patch sets into one series? I still need to look more into the kobj stuff about the cdev, if needed I'll add a patch for that as well.
