Hi all, I'm wondering who need to support following SoCs/boards in mainline. * S5P64X0/SMDK6440 and SMDK6450 * S5PC100/SMDKC100 If nobody is using them, how about to remove them from mainline?I talked about this with Tomasz Figa before, he also thinks they can be removed. I don't see any reason to keep them myself, and will apply a patch to remove them. Of course, if later somebody comes around who does need them, we can revert the patch to bring them back.Yeah, agreed.quoted
Or better, if later somebody comes around who does need them, we can add them properly, using Device Tree and existing generic code.Of course.quoted
Anyway, for removal of both s5p64x0 and s5pc100: Acked-by: Tomasz Figa<redacted> Actually I have played a bit with the code to see how much can be removed and ended up with following branch: https://github.com/tom3q/linux.git v3.17-cleanup Feel free to do _whatever_ you want with patches there.OK, thanks. Let me remove them from mainline when 3.16-rc1 is released...
Alright. I have a series to convert s5pv210 to DT-only waiting to be sent as soon as 3.16-rc1 is released, but if you remove those two first, I should be able to simplify several things, so I'll wait. Best regards, Tomasz
