Hi Ben,

I think we should try to pick out the stuff that is ready to be merged
first. I think these patches may require a bit of time before people
start looking at them. I don't mind resending in the future.
To be honest, I have not been paying too much attention to other
patches including yours - been focused trying to get the memory
management part right.. So I'd like to focus on correctness over DT
for now if possible. Of course we it all.
Would it be possible for you to provide a list of pci-rcar-gen2.c
patches that you posted? Or perhaps you can resend your series and
include acks that you received?
I don't think I have any acks, only review comments. I think the code
itself is pretty much ready to be merged and has been tested here with
the Lager board.
Ok, thanks. I'd like to go through them myself if possible. I was
looking for a cover letter or something that listed the patches but I
can't seem to find it. Can you please provide a list?
I will re-send the patches once I've applied the relevant fixups from
the last round, hopefully within the next few hours.
The big issue for us is that we /must/ boot with fdt, which means the
less fdt support that is in the kernel then the more patches we end up
carrying out of tree. This is why we have been pushing patches out to
try and get the support in.
Can you please define "boot with fdt"? As you probably know, both
board-lager.c and board-lager-reference.c boot with DT. I suppose you
mean that you want DT to describe the entire system, with no C code
for the board? Please note that some devices like timers still don't
use DT, so if you can live without those then... =)
We currently have enough to use the system. And yes, we boot with
board-lager-reference.c which current seems to be turning up bugs
in the up-stream (see the recent new bug with cpg clock code reported
by my colleague).
Due to issues out of our control we can test with board-lager.c but
we must use the board-lager-reference.c for actual product test. The
only way we found around this is ugly hacking of the core driver code
to link platform and fdt devices...
