Re: [PATCH] ARM: S3C2443: Workaround for 2443 EXTINT error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've done it within another function, because otherwise users of other
chips would pay for a one more runtime check, which they don't need. On
the other hand, this function get called not so frequently, to make it
valueable. The first version of my patch i've used internally worked as
you said, so i can resend it.

I want to ask more experienced users of s3c2443. If this problem occures
on all s3c2443 chips, or only with some series of it? Maybe we need some
more checks, not to break working cases.
