If you (Heiner) are going to be the "From" author, then this line
should not be here.

Maybe a newline between paragraphs?

...here: should there be entries for you (Heiner) too? If not, should
Andreas be the "From" author?

This also applies to the `MODULE_AUTHOR`.

Also it may be a good idea to add the emails:

    MODULE_AUTHOR("Andreas Färber <afaerber@xxxxxxx>");
    MODULE_AUTHOR("Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@xxxxxxxxx>");

(You may also want to consider adding an entry on `MAINTAINERS`).

Consider using `const` for some of the variables.

Consider inverting the condition, doing the set to `0` + `continue;`
to avoid the indentation.

Style: sometimes the variables are initialized right away using a
value from above, but other times they are done below.

> +       if (count > s->grid_size + 1) /* consider trailing newline */

Style: sometimes comments are trailing the line, others are above.
Also, sometimes they start with uppercase, but in other cases they do
not.

Also, about the `+ 1`: is it possible that sysfs gives us a buffer
full of `isprint()`? i.e. is it possible that `grid_size ==
MAX_GRID_SIZE` and `count == MAX_GRID_SIZE + 1` and then we perform an
out-of-bounds store to `MAX_GRID_SIZE + 2` in `text`?

If not, is there a consequence? i.e. why wouldn't one check and fail
similarly in the `tm1628_set_*` calls below?

What about putting the code in the `if` body (negating the condition)?

> +       num_leds = 0;

This is reusing the variable for a different purpose, no? i.e. if we
did not get here, we would have no leds, yet we would report the
number above.

Is a failure expected? i.e. this `continue;`s, but should it fail or
is it OK to proceed?

> +       for (i = 0; i < 7; i++) {

Maybe a `#define` for several of the `7`s around?

Doesn't `.remove` return `int`?

Thanks!
