Ok sorry, I misunderstood and thought that the output from the
discussion in patch 3/3 was that the pdata could not still be removed
due not having a way to configure the clocks for wl12xx.
I totally agree with removing the pdata on this driver, in fact I
would go an just remove all the remaining OMAP2+ board files and
pdata-quirks completely. Most OMAP2+ boards have been converted to DT
years ago and if someone really cares about mainline support for these
boards, they can add a DTS and DT bindings for the drivers that still
needed like this one.
Best regards,
Javier
