The driver looks saneish to me, but...

- The attachment uses \r\n line termination and caused me quite a bit
of trouble before I worked out what was going on.

- The changelog is missing your Signed-off-by:. Please read up on
this in Documentation/SubmittingPatches.

- The driver needs lots and lots of trivial coding-style fixes.
Please take a look at some similar drivers and also use the
scripts/checkpatch.pl tool.

checkpatch says:

total: 153 errors, 110 warnings, 874 lines checked

which must be some sort of record ;)

Also, some C functions have needless `\' line continuations in them.


All pretty simple stuff. Please take a look at all that and then resend?

Thanks.
