1) Don't top-post. Your e-mail may otherwise be ignored.
2) There is conflicting information if your patch is causing trouble 
   or not. Please clarify if and when a reboot fails, and what you changed
   to solve the problem.
3) This is an I2C multiplexer. Provide a patch which introduces an I2C
   multiplexer driver.
4) Read and follow Documentation/hwmon/submitting-patches for submitting
   your patch.

Thanks,
Guenter
