Ok, There are a lot of warnings/errors regarding my use of spaces for
alignment of multi-line function calls.

(i.e. use tabs for the logical indentation level plus spaces to align
e.g. function arguments behind the opening parenthesis)

<tab><tab>function (argument1,
<tab><tab>          argument2);

This has the advantage of not breaking alignment when changing tab
width. Is this something acceptable in the kernel? It seems CodingStyle
is open to interpretation there, not sure if the conding style is open
for discussion though...  :)

Or should I just globally replace 8 subsequent spaces with a tab?

My understanding is that CodingStyle insists on tabs for
indentation and tabs are always 8 characters wide. Additional
indentation for alignment of function arguments is done by
spaces, i.e.:

<tab>function(arg1,
<tab><tab>    arg2);

passing platform data for specifying reset_pin should be optional,
I think. There are hardware configurations without wired gpio for
/RST controlling, /RST is controlled by HW-circuitry. The driver
should be usable with such configurations, too. Can you please
change the driver so that controlling reset pin becomes optional?

Will do.

Thanks,

Anatolij
