Ok, so:

The above (deprecated methods) have been around for a while, I'm
converting the drivers one by one, windtunnel hasn't yet been
trough the grinder.

However, now that I know I have a tester that will make things easier
(since I don't have the actual HW :-) I'll send you a patch to try out
as soon as I have it sorted.

Above are the same.

Those are mostly harmless, they just tell us that the device-tree is
missing the i2c address for a few things. The only one potentially
worrying is the "deq" one (audio), for which I should have a workaround.

Can you send me a tarball of /proc/device-tree on your machine so I can
check a few things ? I might add code to silence some of those warnings
as they don't actually indicate a problem.

That one probably means that therm_windtunnel grabbed the device before
we could expose it using the "new way"... well I think :-) I'll have to
double check, but does it look like the thermal control is working ? If
it is, then it's probably just that and will naturally disappear as soon
as therm_windtunnel is converted over.
