I thought you were up to a solution where board file data could override just parts of the DT provided information. But I don't think the latter would be any useful anyway, so I'm happy with your solution :) Thanks for your help, Daniel -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
