...snip...
At LaCie, this kind of bus is called a "GPIO extension bus". It is like a cheap GPIO expander.
So to me it those are "cpld_ios".
I am not sure that behind this kind of bus we always have a CPLD. I will check this. If it is the case, what do you think about cpld-gpio-bus ?
Even this sounds good to me, better than my suggestion earlier :).
Moreover as this "bus" is really a lacie specific stuff, should I prepend a "lacie-" prefix ?
This is not necessary I think.
