Firstly, the RFC series should be converted into something that can be applicable upstream, e. g.: - doing the changes over the top of upstream, instead of needing to revert patches; - change all drivers as the kAPI changes; - be git bisectable, e. g. all patches should compile and run fine after each single patch, without introducing regressions. That probably means that the series should be tested not only on omap3, but also on some other device drivers. -- Thanks, Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
