Subject: Re: [PATCH v11 0/3] fpga: Use standard class dev_release function
Hi Moritz,
This is a simple rebase onto the latest linux-next. There was one conflict
in the fpga-mgr code, but otherwise everything applied cleanly. There are
still some differences of opinion on having two flavors of the API (simple
and full). I'm happy to do things either way. I don't think we are going
to arrive at a consensus. Do you want to make a call on this? Are you OK
with the patches as they are? Or should I change to a single register()
function that receives the info structure pointer as a parameter?
Here is a link to the first relevant email in the unresolved discussion.

Please let me know if you would like me to make additional changes.
