I'm sure that's true. My point to you is that - its a highly non-intuitive thing to do on a reading of the datasheet for this part. LPSS is, ostensibly at least, for passing processor resources via APCI. If you look at a QRK datasheet it says "enumerate all this stuff via PCI" - there's not a single mention of LPSS. Its reasonable, correct and currently required for QRK to set CONFIG_8250_PCI. To move away from a valid/standard PCI probe routine into a new special LPSS/PCI shim (which the hardware doesn't actually mandate) I do think you should to setup the dependency CONFIG_8250_PCI => CONFIG_8250_LPSS. --- bod -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dmaengine" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
