The assertion does not currently make sense to me. > If the documentation states that this is commonly used with virtio/xen pv drivers, then I'm afraid people will just assume that's the only devices the platform is used with. Any mention of specific devices or features steers the attention away from the essential point of this documentation. I don't see how adding this text helps. Such documentation should go elsewhere, in QEMU, or a Xen/KVM web page or something like that. Anyway, I'm not religious about this point. -Christoffer -- 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
