A list like this suggests the patch should actually be two patches.
Also, the commit message should answer the question "Why?". I can see
what you have done by reading the patch. But Why have you done it?

linux/drivers$ grep -r i2c-dev | grep request
grep: i2c/i2c-dev.o: binary file matches

No other drive does this. Why is this driver special?
