Hopefully I can either ack or merge v4. I'll retain the irqchip model for now and send a v4 with all comments addressed and better subsystem wise patch split. > > I brought it up on one other patch, but it's not really clear to me what > the split is on board file vs. device tree handling, since you seem to > have a combination of both (i.e., platform data that passes along device > nodes). What's the plan on that? Platform data no longer passes device nodes. We're either true device tree or plain legacy.

Is it OK if functionality breaks if for example only MTD changes are considered? 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
