Thanks. I agree that it's unfortunate; this has been my first time
working on an ARM SoC and there were few things we could have done
better in hindsight.

I've got similar patches for the ASPEED hwmon pwm/tach driver, and the
i2c driver that I'll send out now.

Thanks for the review.

Cheers,

Joel
