This patch adds support for PCA9541, an I2C Bus Master Selector.
The driver is modeled as single channel I2C Multiplexer to be able to utilize
the I2C multiplexer framework.

v2 changes:
- Added more detailed description and reasoning why the driver was implemented
  as single-channel multiplexer.
- Modified arbitration algorithm, since access to i2c masters from interrupt
  level is not a good idea. Instead of using hrtimers and handling arbitration
  in interrupt, handle it from select_chan and either delay for short retry
  periods or sleep for long (millisecond) periods.

Sorry for the late reply. I hoped to find the time to review your
driver in depth with the datasheet, but finally didn't, so here is a
shorter review.

Your model seems sane as long as the Linux host only controls one of
the masters. If the two masters are controlled by the Linux host, the
slave bus segment will appear twice but you will only be able to
instantiate an I2C client device on one of them for each device,
otherwise the same device will be listed twice.

If we have to support this, the i2c core will need some rework, as an
i2c_client would have to be allowed to have more than one parent.

You no longer need this. OTOH you would need to include
<linux/jiffies.h> for time_is_after_eq_jiffies, and <linux/delay.h> for
udelay and msleep.

I'm not sure how udelay() and msleep() qualify as "high resolution
timers"? I think you want to rephrase this comment.

Also I doubt you really meant microsiemens, but more likely "us" for
microseconds.

You could easily do without this field IMHO. Simply pass the client

Note that you could derive the adapter from the client, so you don't
have to pass it as a function parameter.

Needless to say we'll end up providing helper functions for these
"unlocked" transactions at some point in time. I'm just waiting to see
more mux drivers pop up, to figure out the right API.

Any reason to not make this array const? Also I would make its size
explicit, as the driver codes assumes there are 0x10 elements in this
array.

We are done, but we still have something to do? Confusing.

I would love to see a comment before each of these timeout values, to

The convention is to use negative values for errors.

The use of __devinit and __devexit isn't recommended for i2c drivers.
If your driver is built into the kernel but the underlying i2c bus
driver is build as a module, you're in trouble.

Note: you already know that the device exists. If not, probe() wouldn't
be called. So if you get a failure here, it means broken platform
initialization code.

Please don't use the term "virtual" here. This bus segment has nothing
virtual, it exists for real.

This error message is somewhat confusing if "force" is 0: in that case
you didn't request any specific bus number.

This is racy. You are protected by the controller's mutex only inside
the select_chan and release_chan methods. Outside of them, you are a
regular user of the controller, so you have to use only regular
("locked") transfer functions. Alternatively, you can request and
return exclusive access to the controller yourself with the
i2c_lock_adapter() and i2c_unlock_adapter() functions, and keep using
your "unlocked" transfer functions.

Additionally, as soon as your new bus segment is registered, someone
might decide to use it. If you call pca9541_release_bus(), it will
cause a failure. So I believe you should call pca9541_release_bus()
_before_ you call i2c_add_mux_adapter().

Yes, there is an implied assumption that a host only controls one master.
I'll add a comment to the code to clarify this.

You mean use PCA9541 when describing the chip ? Makes sense - I'v been using both
PCA9541 and pca9541 in the comments, which is not really clean.

Ok. Besides, those are no longer timers.
I'll rephrase to "higher resolution timeouts".

I'll rephrase the comment. It was meant to identify the chip (short for

This is from pca954x code. Not sure how to rephrase it. Got an idea ?

Just "failed to register master selector\n" should do. The adapter
number doesn't really add any value.

I don't mind changing this, but ... the code is copied from pca954x.c,
which also uses __devinit and __devexit for the same functions. Wouldn't
that be a problem there as well ? Or am I missing something ?

You're right, this should be fixed. I take patches ;)
