Hello Rbairva,

Which JPEG decoder are you working on??

I have Synopsys JPEG Decoder/Encoder on ST SPEAr platform
and i am currently working on its driver for LKML.

I already have a driver for it which is not aligned to LKML guidelines,
and so doing modifications there.
In my driver i have used char device framework and none other suits it well.
