This is exactly what we do today with the 12xx - we just need to assert a digital signal, which by no means power the device (the voltage value we provide isn't really fed from the gpio signal). Your case might be slightly different, but still I think it's worth looking into this approach first. > Another option would be just to hack this into the kernel.

Core code should not contain such machine-specific details (imagine how it would look when other boards will start adding this 8686 tweak...). > Another cleaner option (but perhaps OTT for just 1 user?) would be to > add a notifier chain that is called at this point. That would obviously work but as you and Nicolas mentioned it's an overkill: we don't really need random users to plug into this hook, and using notifiers will just make the code less readable and harder to debug, so it's better to try to find a solution that fits. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
