My point was that DW_HDMI_PHY_DWC_HDMI_TX_PHY == 0, so trying to force DW_HDMI_PHY_DWC_HDMI_TX_PHY through phy_force_type won't work. > But I'm not tied to that, so will go with the majority opinion :-D . -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- 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
