Obvious question - why duplicate the i2c layer

Is this an officially allocated minor ?

Sleeping holding a spinlock

Ditto. Also should check the return and return -EFAULT if so

Unsafe. Two people can execute the atomic_read before anyone executes

We have a set_ function for this.. ALso what stops an ioctl occuring at
