What is this actually doing? Is this a new bus driver support? Is this a feature to existing drivers? Is the GPIO an irq line for signalling hoplugging and can be used by any driver or just this one? Without further discussing technicalities, can you please explain better and more in detail what is the scope of this patch, why there is a need for such a patch, how this new driver/feature has been implemented and finally how it can be used. This would help a lot so that I know already beforehand what I am going to read without figuring it out. Thanks, Andi PS Please notice that my set of questions is even longer than your commit log :)
