Dave, could we consider setting a LoC limit for series and patches?
I know this is a new driver, but there's gotta be a way to split 
this up more, even if it's painful for the submitter :S

All the debugfs stuff shouldn't be necessary in the first version,
just looking at first 2 patches...

I hear what you're saying.  But I have to balance this with the concern
for creating a barrier for entry to submitting new drivers.

However, looking from another perspective you are right that review
burdon is not purely on a number of patches level, but rather the
product of number of patches and lines per patch and thus LoC.

I'd hate to specify a hard nuber and would rather try to apply
judgment onto individual submissions and deal with it on a case
by case basis.

If someone thinks a submission is too large, anyone can just say that
and we'll see what happens.

Thanks.
