The Embedded Artists has a board based on ARM LPC3250 called EA3250 and they provide a BSP with patch to Linux Kernel version 2.6.29.2. I am trying to "up merge" this patch to Kernel v3.4 (now 3.5) and after that get it in the mainstream. Although I have a working version ( https://github.com/jrbenito/Kernel-LPC3250) I still have doubts on how to correct submit it to mainline kernel. -The machine type is already registered in past ( http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/list.php?id=2512) but it is not in mainline. Since I shall not patch this file, how can I ask to it be updated with ea3250 board information?
We already have ea3250.dts in mainline since v3.5. Roland
