So, > why bother exposing that in the core? Giving a driver more flexibility is always a good thing. I'm not really familiar with mtd/ and maybe indeed it doesn't make much sense to move HW resetting to NAND core, though it looked to me that it should be always safe for NAND core to initiate HW resetting after IO failure and hence would be cleaner and nicer to have a unified HW reset management rather than to have each driver to do its own thing. -- 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
