Can you make one patch on top of mainline, that prepares the existing
sun50i_h6_ths_calibrate() function to deal with four sensors? I would then
include this patch of yours in the next submission, and put Martin's H616
patch (now probably just the struct ths_thermal_chip) on top then.
Please send this patch just to the list (CC:ing people like Martin and
me), starting a new thread.
Many thanks,
Andre
