Re: [PATCH 8/9] rtc-pcf2123: use sysfs groups

From: Alexandre Belloni
Date: Tue Nov 24 2015 - 18:31:11 EST


Hi,

This is okay but I'm not actually sure about the usefulness of that
interface. The driver is exactly here to abstract access to the
registers. Limit it to registers that are not used by the driver? Also,
It would probably better live in debugfs rather than in sysfs.
