Hi Greg:

To help me digest your patch, I generated some diffs from sensors CVS
to linux-2.6.0-test5 + your patch.  You can find them (and the script
I used to generate them) here:

http://members.dca.net/mhoffman/sensors/diff_cvs-to-lk2.6/

The following quoted diffs are from the above link...

(drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i810.c)

> -static unsigned long ioaddr;
> +static void *ioaddr;

But later we're doing arithmetic on ioaddr(!)  Apparently the readl/writel
macros are recasting that... but to me this is an obfuscating change.

Didn't you advise mds earlier that the correct solution here is to
combine this code into the driver with which it now conflicts?  (See
drivers/video/i810/...)  Likewise for i2c-via.c and i2c-voodoo3.c.
