[PATCH v11 0/4] AT91: replace old i2c-at91.c TWI driver

From: Nicolas Ferre <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-12 07:59:30
Also in: linux-i2c, lkml

On 08/29/2012 09:28 AM, Nikolaus Voss :
The old driver has two main deficencies:
i)  No repeated start (Sr) condiction is possible, this makes it unusable
    e.g. for most SMBus transfers.
ii) I/O was done with polling/busy waiting what caused over-/underruns
    even at light system loads and clock speeds.

The new driver overcomes these deficencies and in addition allows for
more than one TWI interface.

A remaining limitation is the fact, that only one repeated start is
possible (two concatenated messages). This limitation is imposed by
the hardware. However, this should not be a problem as all common
i2c-client communication does not rely on more than one repeated start.

Changes since v11:
- corrected wrong id_entry on sam9261 twi gpio pdev
Hi Wolfram,

Despite the patch revision written in the subject, it is actually the
real v12 patch series from Nikolaus.
BTW, I suspect that you were not in copy...

In addition to the "Tested-By" tag by Ludovic, you can add my:
