    I think the question was more addressed to Guenter because he did not
    try to help me to get involved with that patch. I did not mean to say
    that I would have expected reviews within a week, but I would have
    hoped for being more inclusive, i.e. trying to tell me what I am
    doing, why, even if it is clearly broken. Please forgive me my
    technical shortcoming. I am sure this would improve over time, just
    like for anyone else here.

    Currently, I am not there mentally to submit the patch set requested
    by Lee because this situation is making me being afraid of a newbie
    and submitting patches with issues. An expert may just come and
    rewrite it, and then my effort is going again to "/dev/null". I guess
    I will need some time and break to get over this...

    That being said, I hope I will come back with peace of mind after the break.

    PS.: I have submitted a patch set in December by the way, and got no
    review from the hwmon maintainers for the hwmon parts. That patch is
    still valid, and review would still be very welcome. The current
    submission is pretty much just a direct port of it on top of the
    latest mfd and upstream changes.
