Hi Amelie,
thanks a lot for your patches!

So I take it that the department creating the STMPE "ST MPE" or "ST Microelectronics MultiPurpose Expander" Now created a new set of circuits?
Can we first establish whether this new family is really so different from STMPE that it really needs a new driver in MFD and GPIO (and I guess pin control as well)?
I would be annoyed to see later that it is just a few bytes separating it from the STMPE, in that case I think it is better to just reuse/improve the good old stmpe driver and take it from there.
Yours, Linus Walleij
