That's because i2c-amd756-s4882.c was written before the i2c-mux infrastructure was available. Ideally SMBus multiplexing support on the Tyan S4882 would be converted to i2c-mux (i.e. i2c-amd756-s4882.c would be deleted and the multiplexer would be instantiated in i2c-amd756.c itself, based on DMI data.) This shouldn't be particularly difficult, the real difficulty is to find someone with one of these boards to test the changes. > However if you are interested in porting my work to latest git, you > will be welcome! That's not how it works, sorry. Submissions must be based on a recent kernel in order to be accepted upstream. If you want SMBus multiplexing support on your system, it will have to be based on i2c-mux, because that's how things work now. Otherwise I will not accept your code. -- Jean Delvare -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
