Antti sent this:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/20/828

and I added a Tested-by in v8

https://github.com/peda-r/i2c-mux/commit/c023584d34db7aacbc59f28386378131cfa970d2

but the patch was never sent as an email, only as part of a pull request for

https://github.com/peda-r/i2c-mux/commits/mux-core-and-locking-8

So, I think all is ok, or do you need more than Tested-by?

Cheers,
Peter
