Hi Guenter,[ ... ]
Again, I think it would make much more sense to add hwmon supportI agree. But the chip also has led functionality. I got review feedback to make it MFD. So when rewriting as MFD driver made separate driver based on subsystem. I'm not sure if it is ok to use hwmon subsytem in regulator driver. Will once check with maintainer on this.
to the regulator driver than having a separate driver since there
is lots of overlap. For example, the regulator driver already
sets and monitors limits.
