Hi Benoît,

The LPDDR2 spec does consider as well NVM (Non Volatile Memory), so I think we

Hmm good point!
So perhaps something like drivers/memory/dram/ for the SDRAM controllers,
and maybe drivers/memory/ for the GPMC?
In fact Felipe was considering something else for that kind of general purpose
bus driver like GMPC, C2C and LLI...
... But I do not remember the name :-)
It would be nice if we could separate IP blocks that can drive an Ethernet
controller or modem chip from the DRAM controllers; they are quite
different beasts from a common API standpoint.
Yep, fully agree. In fact Felipe's suggestion was something like
drivers/ocd for off-chip devices, but maybe something like drivers/gpbus
will highlight a little bit more the bus controller aspect of such driver.

Benoit
