That only seems to work when using slots (which I don't do yet and while
I am willing to change it I can't do it right now since other software
depends on the type-a protocol...).

Yeah, I guess I'll cook up a small document.

Well, I do configure the pin as input as well.

Which would then probably have to move to the board file, where there is
no real good place to put it. Or you invent some sort of callback
functions in the platform device structure so that the driver calls back
into the boardfile.

I dunno. Seems like a lot of overhead for very rare/obscure usecases.

I'll prepare a new version of the patch incorporating the other feedback
from you. Hopefully I'll manage to do this in the next few days.

Bye,
        Simon
