This is getting ridiculous.  Please, please, please write good
descriptions of your patches.  Yes it is obvious that your adding
support for a new chip to an existing driver, but you haven't said a
word about what you had to change, any problems you encountered or how
it has been tested.

For instance, some of the data types change from uint16_t to uint
without any clue as to why.  Why uint?  Why not uint32_t (for
example)?

Give a poor review a break and give me some hints about what I should
be looking out for and any gotchas that might be in the code.

Andreas, I'm not singling you out.  This is not the only patch by far
that shows up without a sufficient description.  I just happened to
snap while reading this one.

Can these not be rolled up into a single i2c transaction?  It looks
wrong to do two transfers for a single write.

Ditto here.

Blech!  Why the cast?
