Will do right now. Actually I can't seem to find it in my mail archive, but I remember you were saying that it shouldn't spoil into the driver base code. You're probably right, so the updated patch will be limited to of_platform_* API. Grant was suggesting that I shouldn't be using the device model if I have to initialize some early stuff. The thing is that my stuff is not that early at all. The device model works for me perfectly, as long as I can initialize 3 crucial devices in a correct order (and *then* do mass population). And the init levels are perfect for this job. The only thing I need is a small refinement in the way DT-based devices are populated and this is exactly what I propose. Hope it makes more sense now.
