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.
