Except those 4, "exynos-gsc: change driver compatible string" really needs to go in 3.7. Bootloaders will be supplying an FDT node for this device with compatible string "samsung,exynos5-gsc", not "samsung,exynos5250-gsc". In case this patch is applied only starting from 3.8, kernels 3.7, where the GScaler driver was first added, will have broken support for this device. Hence this patch should be considered as a real bug fix. For those embedded systems it might not be a big deal, since it rarely happens pure mainline kernel is used for production. But in principle it's better to apply that patch, to avoid mess where different kernels require different compatible string. This would mean an ABI breakage. -- Thanks, Sylwester -- 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
