Can we then at least link the I/O Expander example to the docs of that
display?
I've documented my experience here:
https://blog.runtux.com/posts/2021/01/06/

And at the time there were two out-of-tree implementations.

Note that I think that redundancy in code is bad.
Not so for documentation.

Thanks + kind regards
