Taking this patch into v4.11.x now ensures that the B2260 will work great out-of-the-box. Taking it later will ensure that it does not. The user will have to `dnf update` (or whatever tom-foolery Fedora uses these days ;) ) in order to obtain the fix. The former scenario is preferred. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog
