Hi Peter,

while porting linux kernel 3.0 to a 5208 hardware I found the mcf-i2c driver

As far as I know this has never been in mainline kernels.
I have been carrying a version of it around in the uClinux-dist
linux-2.6.x sources for a while - as drivers/char/i2c-mcf.[hc]

That looks to be similar, though not completely identical,
to the driver you have attached here.


This is tested on an mcf5208 board with several LM75s.

Greg: Would you please check if it could be merged upstream?

At the very least there is some style issues that need to
be fixed first. Only /* */ style comments should be used for
one thing. Easiest way to find style issues is to run:

  scripts/checkpatch.pl

from within the kernel source tree.

This patch would also need to be sent to the i2c mailing list
(http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-i2c) so it can
go to mainline via the i2c git tree.

I can certainly take ColdFire specific header file changes,
after being cleaned up.

Regards
Greg
