(1/3) i2c-isa, via686a and w8378x series sensors support for 2.5.58

Hello,

I have ported the i2c-isa driver and the via686a and w83781d driver and sent them to Linus for inclusion in the 2.5 kernel, don't know if he will accept them. I probably should have mailed you before about this, I hope you don't mind. I did these because I use them myself, if you would like it I can try to port some others too and sent them to you for testing, I can't test any other sensors because I don't have any hardware with other sensors then these 2.

Regards,

GertJan

Subject: [PATCH] (1/3) i2c-isa, via686a and w8378x series sensors support for 2.5.58

Hello Linus,

These 3 patches provide support for the Pseudo ISA adapter (i2c-isa),
the VIA 686A Integrated Hardware Monitor (via686a) and Winbond W8378x series (w83781d) sensors.
Both sensors depend on i2c-isa.
The added files are modified versions of the ones found in the lm_sensors-2.7.0 package and were ported by me with help from Christoph Hellwig to the new driver model.

This patch (1/3) adds /drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-isa.c and adds it to Kconfig and Makefile in the same dir.
Please apply.

Thanks,

GertJan

I'll review the via686a and w83781d patches and merge what's appropriate into CVS. I expect the via686a changes are useful and that the w83781d changes we've pretty much already done.

Well, I have just put 300kB worth of 2.4/2.5 patches in the lm_sensors CVS. It will take some time until we get the busses PCI code converted, though, and then we can again offer 2.5 patches.
