Re: [PATCH 1/1] auxdisplay: Add I2C gpio expander example

[Ralf Schlatterbeck]

The hd44780 displays are often used with pcf8574 based I/O expanders.
Add example to documentation.

Updated Patch, thanks to Geert Uytterhoeven for his tip on how to
reproduce the warning. I've removed the address from the i2c stanza
which fixes it. Let me know if I should re-post the patch in a separate
thread.
