It would be great to get someone else who knows that this hardware is
supposed to be doing to ack or sign-off on this patch, as I don't know
if this really is providing the correct api for it or not.

Right now it's just reading data from the hardware, what good is that?
Who uses this?  What userspace tools connect up to it?

thanks,
