Definitely going to need device tree maintainer input!  (though as Lars
and you discussed some mods to this in the cover letter discussion,
perhaps they should wait for V2).

Agreed with the discussion in the cover letter responses.  Needs
to be more specific as lots of ways of skinning this cat.
Hehe, just occurred to me that your Maintainer entry below
makes you responsible for all of them.. Acked!

I guess the available stuff you have brought up to date should deal with this
one without needing another param.

This is an odd one and definitely a case for the device tree guys.

It's not generic enough to not have a 'manufacturer' in the param name,
but there isn't really a manufacturer as anyone with a few chips can build
one of these (using the 'wiring' diagram above ;)

So what should the prefix be?

As discussed, this is fundamental enough that it should probably
be based on the compatible string rather than a separate item.
