Hello everyone,
Anyway, I've got a quick question about the directory structure in arch/arm/*
Is there any reason not to keep mach-* in plat-* directories while
mach-* appears to be a "sub-categories" of plat-*?
For example, rather than the current structure:
arch/arm/plat-samsung/
arch/arm/mach-s5pv210/
arch/arm/mach-s5p****/
, why don't we structure them like:
arch/arm/plat-samsung/mach-s5pv210/
arch/arm/plat-samsung/mach-s5p****/
For mach-* that is not included in and does not use any plat-*, we may
make "arch/arm/plat-common" or just put them at arch/arm/.
Probably there could be discussions like this (likely), but I just
don't know why we are not structured like that. If it is because we
have some mach-* that use multiple plat-*, (multiple inheritance?) we
may be able to move on with this consolidation.
Cheers!
