I am happy for the A8k changes, provided there's coordination, so we reasonably avoid to duplicate effort, but I think we're already at the point where most of my effort has already been duplicated. If someone wants to take (eg) my ICU patches and fit what's appropriate on top of Thomas', then I'd welcome that effort. Obviously, the PP2x changes in my tree are no-hopers for mainline as the decision has been made to improve the existing PP2 driver, and I think the gpio/pinctrl changes are now no-hopers as that work has already been done independently. I'm not sure there's much other stuff left out of the 63 patches that comprise my "mvebu" branch as far as core A8k changes go. For the mcbin changes (that come after the mvebu/phy merge), I think everything up to and including "arm64: dts: marvell: mcbin: add GPIO" is probably mainline-candidates (except for the PP2 driver obviously), the sdhci DTS patch has already been picked up. "arm64: dts: marvell: mcbin: workaround wrongly wired i2c1 bus" is definitely not for mainline, as that is only for early revision boards, and SR does not want that merged into mainline (as stated in its commit log.) "arm64: dts: marvell: mcbin: add remainder of pinctrls" and "usb: host: xhci: mvebu: add reset on resume quirk" might also be candidates, I'm not sure without looking further. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- 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
