This is done by calling a generic write attribute helper similar

Hi Phil,

In principle this is fine but there are a few subtle details that need
tidying up...

Also - normally a core ABI patch like this would only be applied as
part of a series that is using the change.  Is such a series on its
way?  We would want to see a usecase to evaluate the additional
interface.

G'day Jonathan,

Not really. The hardware for the driver is custom fpga core and external hardware device.
No reason it can't be up-streamed but I doubt it'd be of use to anyone else and I haven't
made much effort to write the driver to meet the kernel coding standards.

Driver is basically a posix clock using an OCXO that is tuned using a DAC.
Don't know if there's any interest in such a thing.
Yeah - that one is a little random ;)

Hohum.  Lets make an exception - with the tidy ups below I'll take this
even though we don't have an in kernel user for now...


Thanks, I'll send v2 soon.
