We can create pxa27x-dt_defconfig which selects: 1. PXA27X_DT 2. PXA_FB and 8250_PXA to enable console 3. MMC, MMC_PXA and EXT4_FS to enable boot from MMC 4. all optional pxa stuff as modules 5. all stuff on supported pxa boards as modules If #5 is extended when support for new boards is added, it should be possible to run any supported pxa27x board with pxa27x_defconfig. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
