We do the same with our android-tegra-2.6.36 > tree. Just to be clear, ASoC is the mainline embedded audio subsystem rather than something out of tree like the Android patches. ASoC has been undergoing a lot of development recently so there's some substantial API differences between 2.6.36 and 2.6.37. The suggestion is that it would be easier all round to drop the newer version of the subsystem into the Tegra tree so that the Tegra drivers can be developed against the post 2.6.37 version. This would mean that the linux-tegra tree would be carrying the subsystem diff for 2.6.36 but that diff should just vanish when moving forward to 2.6.37 and beyond, and rather than having to do all the API updates out of tree the drivers should be able to carry forward smoothly. It should also mean that the drivers can be merged into mainline much more readuly. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
