[RFC linux v3 0/4] hwmon: On-Chip Controller (OCC) hwmon driver

[eajames.ibm at gmail.com]

From: "Edward A. James" <eajames at us.ibm.com>

This patchset provides a new Power8 OCC hwmon driver. There are a number
of issues with the existing driver. Firstly, i2c access was embedded
throughout the driver. Secondly, there is no way to easily add different
versions of the OCC.

This patchset addresses the first issue by abstracting the bus transfer
protocol into a modular structure. In this way, any low level transfer method
may be easily implemented.

The second issue is addressed by separating the "version specific" code for the
OCC and the common hwmon code. This task is not yet complete, but the general
structure is in place. Ultimately, different OCC versions could be probed up
using the device tree.
