If so the information has > to go somewhere. Using an alias in the DT is probably the wrong approach. In case of the DRA7xx Soc, this syscon register is shared by multiple cores. (CAN, Display, etc), sigh!! For AM335x and AM43xx SoCs, the register is used only for DCAN. but shared by 2 DCAN instances. Shouldn't the information for the CAN specific bits lie in the CAN driver? cheers, -roger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
