Hi Andy,
thank you for your reply.
I haven't found a specific bug report to apply to this patches.
Could you kindly provide a "Fixes:" tag that I can apply?

It's more like this driver has never been tested with ADS7845.
Maybe the patches should be considered as a new implementation instead 
than a bug fix?


Thanks
Regards
Luca Ellero
