ioctl for i2c devices

[Rohan Akela <rohanakela%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hello

I am in the process of implementing driver for I2C device and need to
read/write to device from user space. I was thinking of using usual
ioctl based mechanism to do it.I don't see any issues in implementing
ioctls for I2C device. But this email thread
http://osdir.com/ml/os.netbsd.devel.embedded/2006-05/msg00008.html
seems to suggest that I2c drivers in NetBSD should not use ioctl. I am
not sure if the observations in thread are still relevant.

What is the issue in implementing ioctl for I2C device ?

If I submit I2C driver to NetBSD,will it accepted or rejected ?

Thanks
