Presumably the existing APIs would work identically, and additional
APIs would be added for the complex case?
Right, but we'd have to add the additional APIs to things like regmap
and ASoC which seems like a kerfuffle.

Yes, to add the multiple address list in i2c_client, then adding address
index in i2c apis, adding address index in regmap inits etc. can require
lots of RFE patches in different subsystem. We can keep discussing this
and once conclude, we can go for implementation.

But for now, can I assume that this patch is fine for resolving my
interrupt issue?

Thanks,
Laxman


I did not heard any objection on this patch so requesting Samuel to considering this patch as of now?
