Hi Henning, > this is a reworked and extended version of the prog/hotplug/p4b_smbus > driver.

As you noticed, the p4b_smbus module is reaching the end of its life since all 2.6 kernels and newer 2.4 kernels don't need it anymore. So let's not have an additional driver doing the same now. We would take a patch against p4b_smbus that adds the support you need. As for the "work on the program logic", unless this significantly shorten or clarifies the code, or otherwise adds real value, I see little to no benefit. What exactly do you intend to do? Please send unitary patches against lm_sensors 2.8.7 with details of what they add if you want us to apply them. And remember that major changes without a solid reason are unlikely to be accepted.
