So, because we can't get agreement on where to put the common helpers, we have to put up with adding duplicate helpers into the staging directory, inflating not only the kernel source code size but also the binary size as well. Come on people, get agreement on how to deal with this. Staging may be a dumping ground for drivers which aren't ready to be merged as proper drivers, but this is no reason to ignore proper process. Do we, or do we not want to get imx-drm out of drivers/staging? If we do, the only way that's going to happen is if we stop throwing in this kind of stuff. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: now at 9.7Mbps down 460kbps up... slowly improving, and getting towards what was expected from it. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
