In CPLD we have three channel selection registers, which one can support up to 256 channels.
CPLD could be programmed with the bigger number of selection registers.
I tried to explain it in description.
Since it's misleading, I'll remove it.

Yes, we have systems only with 8 and 24 channels.
Since through one register it's possible to control up to 256 channels, I mentioned it in description.
I'll remove it.

Channels.

Do you suggest to replace 
force = pdata->first_channel + num; with
force = pdata->modes[num].adap_id;
Right?

I'll remove mlxcpld_mux_platform_data and replace *modes with *adap_id.
When select registers is written out, the previous value is overwritten.

I'll add at myself.

> I'm missing devicetree bindings. Is that not applicable?

It could be something very simple, like
cpldmux@da {
                compatible = "i2c-mux-mlxcpld";
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <0>;
               i2c@0 {
                  ...
               }
}
Do you think it worth adding?

Also most of our systems is based x86 (but also PPC).
So I'll must to add
#ifdef CONFIG_OF
static const struct of_device_id i2c_mux_mlxcpld_of_match[] = {
        { .compatible = " i2c-mux-mlxcpld ", },
        {},
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, i2c_mux_mlxcpld_of_match);
#endif

Do you th9ink it's OK to have such ifdef?
