Hi Greg, all, Here comes a 7-piece patchset updating the i2c-viapro driver. I have a VT8237R on my new motherboard, which I could use to test my work. I had a few testers for other VIA chips as well for some of the patches already, but more testers would of course be welcome. The i2c-viapro driver supports many VIA south bridges, not all of which behave the same way. I would like to thank VIA for releasing datasheets for some of their south bridges recently. I couldn't have improved the i2c-viapro driver the way I did without this technical information. Their position isn't exactly clear yet, as the datasheets are no more available for download from their web site. I hope they will restore them soon, as making datasheets freely available to open-source developers is the only way the support for their chips in Linux can improve. The patches are against 2.6.14-rc2, and I would like them to spend some time in -mm, as some of the changes definitely deserve wide testing. So it's definitely not meant for inclusion into 2.6.14 (if it wasn't obvious enough). I hope they'll make it into 2.6.15 though. Thanks.
