Accessing PCF8574(A) via /sys interface
-------------------------------------
-! Be careful !
The PCF8574(A) is plainly impossible to detect ! Stupid chip.
-So every chip with address in the interval [20..27] and [38..3f] are
-detected as PCF8574(A). If you have other chips in this address
-range, the workaround is to load this module after the one
-for your others chips.
+So, you have to pass the I2C bus and address of the installed PCF857A
+and PCF8574A devices explicitly to the driver at load time via the
+force=... parameter.
On detection (i.e. insmod, modprobe et al.), directories are being
created for each detected PCF8574(A):
