This patch serie adds support for the TS-4600 boards rev A and B. These
boards, manufactured by Technologic Systems, are based on an i.MX28.

This serie include the support for the watchdog which could be enable
at Linux boot time depending on the bootloader.

The watchdog and few peripherals are implemented in a FPGA, and can
only be access using a custom GPIOs bit-banged bus which is called the
NBUS by Technologic Systems.
A driver for this bus is also included and used by the watchdog.

You are mixing changes on 3 subsystem in a single patch series.  It
makes the merge process unnecessarily hard.  I suggest you split the
series as following:

 - nbus dt-bindings and driver
 - watchdog dt-bindings and driver
 - ts-4600 board bindings and dts

You should get the first two into mainline through corresponding
subsystem tree, and then submit the last one to me.  In that case, NBUS
and watchdog dts changes do not have to be separate patches.

Hi Shawn,

Thanks i understand, however if it's ok, i would like to process in the
same time with the TS4600 board bindings and initial dts without the
part related to the nbus and watchdog.
There is no dependencies here and we can accellerate the process.

Regards,
Sebastien.
