The current capebus solution goes a long way to fixing a huge issue for BeagleBone users and I don't understand what seems to be a push-back on principle.

It seems to me the proposed capebus approach strikes a good balance. -- 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
