Pali, on a related note I recently started working on a new driver named bq242xx_charger.c that will add support for the following devices: bq24250 bq24251 bq24261M bq24262 These are TI's key devices in the bq2425x and bq2426x sub-families. I was actually also thinking about some larger consolidation but was concerned about touching/breaking existing stuff and decided to do one step at a time. And yes while there is some system-level overlap between most bq24xxx I'm also worried that providing good coverage of all important device features for all different bq24xxx devices would yield a very large and hard to understand driver. As part of the bq242xx_charger.c development I'm keeping a close eye on the existing bq24xxx drivers. If there seems an elegant way to do some consolidation after all I might be able to broaden the scope of my work. This being said I welcome additional ideas/suggestions here but for this we should probably start a new thread.
