[PATCH 2/2] memory: omap-gpmc: expand the description of the debug facility

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Most register values for the chip select setup depend on the frequency
of the fck clock.
So add a hint that the values setup by the bootloader might differ from
the right setup for Linux if the bootloader uses a different frequency.
