Yes, this is definitely the right idea/way. From what I remember, Kalle
Valo was partially involved in p54spi/stlc45xx. The details are very fuzzy.
So,  I could be totally wrong. From what I remember Kalle was working
for Nokia (or as a contractor for Nokia?) at the time.

I've seen the device-tree comments. That said, this is/was overdue.
You can definitely have this for a v2 :).

Thanks you!

Can you please change that to: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@xxxxxxxxx> ?
(the @web.de/googlemail.com address still work too, but they are now just
