In this case, why a simple state = get_cur_state() followed by a
set_cur_state(++state) / set_cur_state(--state) is not enough?

Another thing is if we want to do jumps in the sequence?

 set_cur_state(cdev, 1);
 set_cur_state(cdev, 3);
 set_cur_state(cdev, 6);

But for that we need a table mapping, trip vs. state.


What do you think?
