So... this driver adds support for LM3532, LM3631, LM3632, LM3633,
LM3695 and LM3697 (or it did when I signed it off).

The rest of the series does not really bring any advantages (you claim
it may add advantages in future). It takes code out of common driver
and duplicates it.

Could we take this patch, get the basic support for LM3532, LM3631,
LM3632, LM3633, LM3695 and LM3697, and then split out the drivers when
we actually gain some advantage doing so (and also when the costs are
clear)?

Thanks,
