My current suggestion would be to parse the complete device tree into an internal graph structure once, at boot to achieve this. This code could look for the optional 'ports' node if and only if the parent device node contains #address-cells != <1> or #size-cells != <0> properties. People completely disagree about the direction the phandle links should point in. I am still of the opinion that the generic binding should describe just the topology, that the endpoint links in the kernel should represent an undirected graph and the direction of links should not matter at all for the generic graph bindings. There's also no consensus about the simplified bindings, but this is an issue I'd like to separate from this series. > > If I understood well, you're requesting to revert all those six patches > > that were imported via git pull from my tree (and from Greg and Russell), > > right? > > > > E. g. reverting those changesets: > > d484700a3695 f2a575f67695 4329b93b283c 6ff60d397b17 4d56ed5a009b fd9fdb78a9bf > > > > as it seems that there's no easy way to revert a git pull. > > All trees containing the branch would need to be reverted. > > > I suspect that this will likely cause some harm when merging from our > > trees upstream. > > It means any tree containing that branch *must* be rewound.

I'm not sure if maybe I misunderstood or missed a mail, but I haven't seen a proposal to resolve the situation without rewinds. Given that Mauro already reverted the media tree and applied conflicting changes, that's probably not going to happen? regards Philipp -- 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
