The work on Orion5x is still on-going. I'd like to progressively
continue the DT migration of Orion5x, moving to multiplatform, and then
once it's done, move into mach-mvebu. I'd appreciate to not rush things
more than necessary.

Yes, that's fine. I'd just want to be sure we all understand what is
going into 3.16 and what isn't.

So your plan for now is to do DT support in 3.16 and multiplatform after
3.16? That won't have any conflicts with the kirkwood patches then, as
far as I can tell.

Yes, my plan is to have what's already in the 'mvebu' branches for
3.16, i.e the migration to DT of a small number of Orion5x machines, as
well as the corresponding dependencies (pinctrl support, clock support,
etc.).

Then, for 3.17, I'll try to:

 * convert more Orion5x boards to DT
 * support PCIe through DT
 * move to multiplatform

Of course, that's a purely tentative schedule, Orion5x is really a
spare time effort today.

Best regards,

Thomas
