From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@xxxxxxxxxx> Note these are used in the related ad5696-i2c drivers as well as the more obviously connected ad5686-spi driver. In order to avoid unnecessary pollution of the global symbol namespace move the common/library functions into a specific namespace and import that into the various specific device drivers that use them.
