Hi,
this is my first kernel patch, so all comments are welcome.
First of all, please check all your patches with checkpatch, to be sure
that they don't have any CodingStyle troubles. There are some on your
patch (the better is to read README.patches for more info useful
for developers).
Attached patch adds two optional (so, disabled by default
and therefore could not break any compatibility) features:
1, tone_control=1
When enabled, ISL6421 overrides frontend's tone control
function (fe->ops.set_tone) by its own one.
On your comments, the better is to describe why someone would need
to use such option. You should also add a quick hint about that at the
option description.
2, overcurrent_enable=1
When enabled, overcurrent protection is disabled during
sending diseqc command. Such option is usable when ISL6421
catch overcurrent threshold and starts limiting output.
Note: protection is disabled only during sending
of diseqc command, until next set_tone() usage.
What typically means only max up to few hundreds of ms.
WARNING: overcurrent_enable=1 is dangerous
and can damage your device. Use with care
and only if you really know what you do.
I'm not sure if it is a good idea to have this... Why/when someone would
need this?
If we go ahead and add this one, you should add a notice about it at the
parameter.
I would also print a big WARNING message at the dmesg if the module were
loaded
with this option turned on.
