m. Thanks for your review, I'll correct all the issues above and send v3 today, if there's no addition problem in v3, I will start sending the actual platform drivers (battery/hwmon/etc) for the next round of review. P.S: This time, I hope Lee Jones, as the MFD subsystem maintainer, has received my mail and my patch, including this one. Unfortunately, all signs indicated he hasn't received it. Jones, if you have received this mail but currently too busy to review, please reply to confirm, thanks! Sincerely yours, Tom Li
