This is nice, thanks!

nit: Instead of "3", "ARRAY_SIZE(switch_cmd)" would be more documenting.

This is a static function and you don't check the error code anywhere.
Why bother returning it?

...although in patch #1 I'm suggesting adding to the core the ability
to have a "sequence of sequences". If that makes sense then perhaps
the code below that uses this will be short enough that it won't look
bad to error check each call?

Super nitty: Even though Linux in general has hex constants in
lowercase, this driver seems to consistently use uppercase. You've
introduced a few inconsistencies here (and a few more below). Can you
make this consistent? Maybe do the upper-to-lower conversion as part
of your efforts to break the driver out?
