With this specific series I also need to figure out what all the video
side is about (like I said earlier a lot of the patches look like
they're supposed to be simple fixes for the video code not terribly
closely tied to the rest of the series but none of them are getting
applied) and what the end goal is beyond mechanically moving code.
(Sorry, I forgot to comment this part.)
The end goal of this series is to fix OMAP HDMI audio, that got broken
couple of releases ago. At the same time I cleaned up the old complex
scheme to make the connection between the video and audio parts and
allow multiple HDMI devices (DSS side is not ready for this yet, but
audio side is).
Another target was to make configuring the audio as simple as possible.
Because everything needed for HDMI audio is always there if the video
side is correctly configured, there should be no need for any additional
configuration (in DT or otherwise) to get the audio working. Now simply
selecting omap-hdmi-audio is enough. There is no complex cross
dependencies to the video side any more, the audio driver simply does
find its device if the HDMI video driver is not probed.
But indeed, in functional sense the whole series - apart from the couple
of fixes in the beginning - is just moving the code around.
Best regards,
Jyri
