This should just go to the gpio people and not staging. The address is linux-gpio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC the Device Tree people for answers the device tree questions: devicetree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The subject should be: [PATCH] gpio: pca9570: add pca9570 driver The patch has a line wrapping problem so it doesn't apply properly.

My view is that you can't really hurt anything by adding broken support for something that currently has no support.

Is this required? TBH I don't really understand how any of the pdata stuff is used. Presumably it has something to do with device tree??? I'm not familiar with this stuff.

Put a blank after. Remove the cast because it is a no-op and not required.

Oh... val is only 1 and 0. That's hella nasty. I hate how hard you made me think about it. Use the BIT() macro. u8 bit = BIT(off); if (val) chip->reg &= ~bit; else chip->reg |= bit; These ->get/set() functions should probably have locking. > + > + pca9570_writeb(chip, chip->reg); > +} > + > +static int pca9570_setup_gpio(struct pca9570_chip *chip, > + const struct i2c_device_id *id, > + unsigned gpio_start) > +{ > + struct gpio_chip *gc = &chip->gpio_chip; > + > + gc->set = pca9570_gpio_set_value; > + gc->get = pca9570_gpio_get_value; > + > + gc->can_sleep = true; > + > + gc->base = gpio_start; > + gc->ngpio = PCA9570_GPIO_COUNT; > + gc->label = chip->client->name; > + gc->owner = THIS_MODULE; > + > + gc->parent = &chip->client->dev; > + > + return PCA9570_GPIO_COUNT; We never use this return value.

"goto unregister;" Except why do we need to call i2c_unregister_device() where did we register that stuff?

It's not required to succeed? Can we check "if (ret) " consistently? Does this really return positives?
