Sure. I wanted to keep the driver simple, making the writes bus agnostic and
adding a level of indirection would make it more complex. But I agree that
it will also make easier to add more buses later. I will do that for v3.

Ok, I'll drop them.

Sure, I don't have a strong preference. I will change it.

Oh, I didn't know about round_{up,down}(). Thanks a lot for the pointer.

I don't know, but saw that the handler of other drivers checked for this so
preferred to play safe and do the same.

It's the number of connector modes. The driver only supports 1.

Right. I'll change in all the places you pointed out.
