What matters is if the original authors of the old st7701 driver are around and reviewing and testing patches at all. What we need is active maintainers. (Added Jagan, Marek & Maya). I buy the reasoning that the st7701s is perhaps substantially different from st7701. If st7701s is very different then I suppose it needs a separate driver, then all we need to to name the driver properly, i.e. panel-sitronix-st7701s.c. Yours, Linus Walleij
