We can't introduce build issues and fix them later. I didn't want to say my comments should be fixed in the initial commit. It's possible to fix the minor ones as separate patches and add the bigger ones into the TODO file. > > Since the API is completely documented, I see no reason we or anybody > couldn't essentially rewrite the driver while it's in staging.

I think my comments weren't fundamental changes, but you surely mean the devicetree ABI? I like to see this driver ASAP out of staging and i'm not interested to maintain 2 functional identical driver only to keep compability with the Foundation tree. Currently i'm afraid that we build up many drivers in staging, which need a complete rewrite later if they should come out of staging. It would be nice if we could avoid the situation we have with the thermal driver.
