Yep. This is a repetitive problem, and I fully agree with your concern about stuff which is supposed to be arch-independent being designed with only DT in mind. New core kernel features should *not* be designed with only DT in mind - DT is not the only firmware description language which the kernel supports. Folk need to understand that if they design a new arch independent kernel feature where the sole use case is with DT, that new feature is probably going to get rejected, especially when it's something as generic as resource tracking. The world is not DT only. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.5Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- 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
