Well, keep in mind that there's no specific patch adding SMP support. The patch here contains *all* of the actual code that goes through mach-bcm. The rest will go through Russell. Given what was missed, if we drop just this patch, we're left with just the DT, Kconfig, and MAINTAINERS changes. It doesn't seem like there's time to fix the problems now. It might be better to drop the whole series from arm-soc since it won't be functional in 3.17 if we drop just this patch. I'd like to see what Arnd and Olof think. I think there's value in leaving all the DT bits for 3.17. -Matt -- 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
