This is *extremely* late for a first posting of a driver for v4.7 (you
missed the list as well as the maintainers).

Why the xor here and not an or?  The coding style is also weird, a mix
of extra spaces around the () and missing ones around *.  I'm finding
the intent of the code confusing here.

Coding style, please keep lines under 80 columns unless there's a good
reason.

I'm not sure what the if is about but it doesn't belong upstream, you
shouldn't be open coding bits of the framework.

This can be removed entirely.

This is adding a DT binding with no binding document.  All new DT
bindings need to be documented.

No need to set either of these.
