When you change a part of the file, a git blame points to you, hiding the previous blame, so it makes traversing history a tiny bit harder. If you're actually doing the Tinkerboard and thus adding new things this changes the whole judgement a bit too. Like I was on the mindset-road of rk3399 is mostly done in terms of new boards, so what's in the kernel now will at max get some new peripherals but is in general already mostly working. If we're still adding new rk3399 boards, it does make more sense to go back and make the underlying parts nicer :-) Heiko
