Hi! Sorry for not replying earlier. To be honest, there is not much I can say yet. The main new part in this driver is the HDMI/CEC support. And that is one of the topics of the upcoming Warsaw brainstorm meeting (several of your Samsung colleagues will be attending). An RFC for CEC support has been posted last week and hopefully we (Cisco Systems Norway) can get a HDMI RFC posted as well in time for the meeting. The main difference of our approach to HDMI is that we integrate it in V4L2 rather than creating new device nodes. Once the media controller is in we also have per-subdevice nodes in /dev which we want to utilize for the HDMI and CEC APIs. Functionality-wise the CEC RFC is effectively identical to your implementation.
