I can do this assuming people are OK with this. - Get the gpio-switch replacement completed and into mainline. Jani, any news on that? There's a threaad about that at: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/809866 - Stop using omap specific ATAGs and pass all the gpio etc info from platform_data. This should be easy with CONFIG_ATAGS_PROC that shows the passed ATAGs in /proc. I can work on this too. - Get drivers/cbus into mainline. Kalle, do you want to do this? I guess there's some other clean-up needed too that we can all work once we have the initial patches working against the mainline.
