Some questions about jrbme in kernel:
* Should be jrbme written against upstream kernel or maemo? Or both?
* Should be jrbme upstreamed?
* If it should go to upstream, what about split code into more separated modules and use standard linux interfaces (instead all in one sysfs entry)? One for watchdog which use standard linux watchdog interface, one for bq27200 chip which use power_supply interface (that already exists), one for bq bq24150 chip (use power_supply to?), maybe one for twl-madc (BSI) and last for usb host mode + glue to work all together...
* How is usb host mode working on old Nokia N8x0 tablets? Is for swithing between host mode and pheripheral mode any standard linux sysfs interface?
* Full jrbme should be BME replecament. Do somebody know what all is BME doing and what from BME can we implement?
I think that kernel module(s) should be written for upstreaming, but backported into maemo kernel too. And I think module(s) should use standard linux interface (watchog, power_supply, ...) if it is possible.
