I will. I've tested the driver by setting termios from userspace. There was no chance to ask for arbitrary rate, so I didn't think much about this case. >Also looking at this and some of the other serial bits I see no >dependencies on the problematic DMA driver, so does that mean you've >got >a set of pieces that can be submitted anyway while the DMA driver >discussion continues ? Yes, getting each peace in will reduce the support burden. The degree of interdependence varies from feature to feature. rtc, mtd, irq and serial could be taken independently. The main patch is #8. It requires #1-7. The is problem with DMA is one of policy, not technical one. It is explained in #6-7 in details. Everything in the misc depends on bus. But the bus is very simple. There is even no interrupts. -- 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
