Hi,
The licensing situation of the drx397x driver appears unclear. The
source files have the following header:

I hope that Micronas have given permission for the redistribution of
this code. In any case, it does not appear to be licensed under an
open source license (which means that anyone who intends to develop
open source drivers for the drx397x should avoid it, at least until
the license situation is clarified).
Markus - can you clarifiy that you have (written) permission from
Micronas to redistribute this source code, and if so under what
conditions?
