I'll submit the patch but would it be better to use u32/u32* and family?
I seem to recall reading somewhere that uint32_t was the preferred form in the kernel. The code I was working from used a mixture so I made it consistent. If u32 is preferred, I'm happy enough to change it...
BTW, I'm also submitting Andrew's backlight/lcd patch to akpm. Do you think
you can port your backlight driver to this framework?
I've been communicating with Andrew offlist and my backlight driver actually uses his framework already! It was me who put him onto the blanking event idea as that was the previous stumbling block for his patch. I was planning on submitting the corgi backlight driver as soon as the class is approved (the other code it depends upon has just been approved).
