SubjectRe: [PATCH v1 2/2] gpio: ds4520: Add ADI DS4520 Regulator Support
Hi Okan,

thanks for your patch!

First: why is the word "Regulator" in the subject? I don't quite get it.

This commit log is too terse. Write a bit about what this hardware is.

Is it MAX7300, I don't get this, it seems super-confused.

(...)

The driver is pretty straight-forward, but I think this can use the
generic GPIO_REGMAP helpers in
drivers/gpio/gpio-regmap.c
check other drivers selecting this helper library for inspiration.
