Thanks for the patch. The diff is quite noisy given you're deleting
lots of cruft from the vendor driver. It would be easier for us to
review if you send the patch that adds the driver from scratch.

One suggestion I did have is to rename the driver to use the aspeed_
prefix for all functions so that it matches the drivers that have
already gone upstream.

Given our goal is immediate upstream submission, how about you send a
complete patch that adds the driver to upstream (say 4.8-rc4?)? Send
it to the i2c lists and cc myself, jk at ozlabs.org, and andrew at aj.id.au.

I hope we can get this sent out for upstream review this week. Let me
know if there's anything I can do to help achieve that.

Cheers,

Joel
