Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH 0/3] introduce: Multistate Switch Class

Hm, as we're speaking and debating where these switches should go,
it appears tasty drivers doing this or similar things are already actively
being merged into drivers/misc/fsa9480.c:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=a1bb73d76bc814e9385390e6aa9880d884322e2e

Given both come from Samsung, is this driver intended to replace
that custom driver or is this another initiative altogether?

Minkyu, Donggeun, can you help us finding out where
these things belong? I guess you guys also have a strong interest
in a standard solution derived from Android.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
