This is not really the Linux way of doing something. You don't throw
something away and replace it. You incrementally modify what you have
into something better.

I really wished you had moved the code, unmodified, into
global1_atu.c. Then made lots of easy to review small changes. I
cannot just look at this patch and know it is correct. What i need to
compare against is not in this patch. So it is a lot harder to review.

I will continue this review later...
