I certainly don't have any problems with that. ;-) As a matter of fact.
My driver was a really simple spinoff of the gpio led driver. Nothing
fancy in there. So I'm certainly happy that the driver will eventually
see a rewrite. I'm just a little surprsied as I caught up this mail
quite by occasion since I'm not subscribed to linux-embedded (time to do
it now, I think ;-)). 'd be nice if you could put the copyright hint
back in there. I'd test it by chance.

The framework looks nice. The recent pwm stuff was more a loose policy
and spreaded in different places in kernel. Nice to have a real frame
work now. Nice work!

cheers
