I'm still really not convinced that the whole handling of the A and B
settings is doing what it's supposed to be doing.  Like I said before I
know another one of your drivers is doing something similar (and not
sharing the code!) but still...

It looks like the driver is basically written so that register set A
must be used when Linux is running and set B must be used in suspend
mode but not everything seems joined up and consistent.

Please just use your name in signoffs, the "Opensource []" garbage that
your mail system inserts isn't helping.

This appears to be picking the active register set...

This forces to register set A.

We don't appear to be controlling this GPIO - this then assumes that the
GPIO can only be used for selecting suspend mode but doesn't impose any
restrictions on this.

This appears to immediately change the active register set to set B
which as I said previously is broken; we may not be suspended yet and
clearly we haven't actually applied the desired setting yet either.
