It's up to you to find out whether it's still unacceptable with the MMC maintainers given all the discussion (it would be the quickest way to get the workaround enabled), or just go with the method below. > > > Any other suggestion here? > > The other option is to try to come up with something that fits into > > Arnd's framework while addressing the concerns I raised.

It's a large code to define them. Yes, there would need to be a table in the guts driver for each SVR. If the SVR isn't found in the table then the soc_id would only contain the svr: and svre: fields. > > > > svr:<SVR minus E bit>,svre:<full SVR including E bit>,name:<soc > > name>,die:<soc die name>,rev:X.Y,<tag1>,<tag2>,<...>, > Should we remove rev here since there is also a revision member? Yes, I forgot there was a revision field -- it should go there obviously. > Regarding the guts_init, we still call guts_init and then match the soc, or > we change to use platform driver? > Or do you know any better place to call guts_init to initialize only once? Use a platform driver for now. If we ever need to check an ARM SVR in the clock driver or similar place, then Arnd can explain what he wants us to do then :-) -Scott -- 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
