I had in person talk with Paul Kocialkowski and I have concluded that this is the best solution. I believe I should rename it to st7701s due to the hardware changes. I would like to create V5 patch with driver renamed to st7701s. Please let me know if you agree / disagree. > > Yours, > Linus Walleij Thank you for your time, Paulo Pavačić
