Hi Arnd, hi Olof,
Ping?
(or maybe you will have a look at this after the merge window...)
I've just gone through all old pull requests that I had somewhere in
my inbox and this turned out to be one that we never pulled.
It looks like it still applies and we should send it to Linus as as
late branch this time, given that we screwed up and it was there
all the time.
Nicolas, can you please confirm?
Nicolas is on vacation, he'll be back on week 32.
Nicolas and Olof discussed about this addition of ifdefs to manage the
two drivers. They agreed to remove platform data for the old driver.
It will be great to go ahead with this patch. I see three solutions:
- take the patch and we will do a new patch to remove old platform data
for 3.7 when at91-mci will be totally removed but it seems that Olof
doesn't like this solution.
- I can write a new patch to remove old platform data as planned by
Nicolas. If Jean-Christophe gives his acked-by, you could take it.
- wait Nicolas' return but it may be too late then we won't have the
smooth transition we wanted.
I am back in the game ;-)
I am about to rebuild a pull-request with what we discussed with Olof:
complete removal of old driver's platform data.
You still have the possibility to queue it as a late branch for 3.6...
(I keep it based on 3.5-rc, but I can rebase it on 3.6-rc1 to ease one
conflict resolution when merging with current Linus' tree).
Bye,
