Do you want us to pick things out here, or go off of a more recent tree given the above mention of merging the arch-specific stuff to mainline? Oh, and do you also need help with the arch-specific code as well, given the recent changes in how the ARM developers are working with the rest of the kernel community? If so, we (well, at least I) can help out there. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
