Somehow I managed to screw things up again as the nc210-nc110 patch isn't
against the min-max-calculations patch... Doesn't matter though. The patch I
just resent applies on top of the nc210-nc110 patch that you already have in
patches.git.

No problem.

I'm not exactly sure what that entails, but I don't have access to any specs
and have never dealt with any hardware programming before. Even these patches
don't directly deal with the hardware so I'm not sure that I'm best suited to
being the maintainer. Having said that, I'm happy to try my hand at any bugs
that arise and review any patches..
