I also think it's better to keep it internal to Tegra. Ulf, could you
please clarify why do you want to have it moved into the core? Are you
aware of any other platforms that want exactly the same quirk? Thierry
should be correct that it's relevant only to Tegra SoCs.
Regarding the 'legitimizing', it's not a bad thing to me at all. If we
want to run more devices with a mainline kernel, then such quirks are
inevitable.
