SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/1] : hwmon - new chip driver for TI ADS7828 A-D
Hi Steve,

In Linus' tree you can find the following new-style drivers:
drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1307.c
drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1374.c
drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c
drivers/rtc/rtc-rs5c372.c

You may also take a look at one that was submitted for merge:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119956436514432&w=2

This doesn't have to be done now though, if you prefer to submit your
driver as-is for now and convert it later, that's fine with me.

Yes formatting looks OK this time.

Overall your driver looks good, I only have minor remarks:

2.5V

As far as I know boolean parameters take values 0 and 1, not N and Y.

Correct unit spelling is "mV".

12-bit 8-channel

s/when/where/?

If there are only 4 measurement channels in differential mode, then
ideally your driver should only create 4 sysfs files in this mode, and
it should only read 4 values from the chip rather than 8 in the update
function. I2C transactions aren't cheap.

You can drop these extra blank lines.

The help block is traditionally indented with two extra spaces.

Note: depending on your application, this caching behavior may or may
not be desirable. It's convenient for PC drivers to prevent users from
saturating the SMBus, but for embedded designs it might cause trouble.
You might want to lower the cache lifetime or even disable the caching
behavior to always get real-time measurements.

Actually not, it's called by i2c_probe.

The rest looks OK to me. I suggest that you give a try to lm-sensors
3.0.0 with this driver, that's the best way to ensure that your sysfs
interface is properly implemented.
