Hi, Daniel
Subject: Re: [PATCH V4 4/9] pinctrl: imx8mn: Support building as module Maybe this is obvious but I would really like to see an explanation of why we are switching from arch_initcall to platform_init. Commit message act as documentation for the reviewers.
Yes, I noticed this, and it looks like unnecessary change, and I just replied in mail that I will change it back to arch_initcall() in order to make sure nothing changed for built-in config. Below is what I replied in cover-letter mail: " I will keep the arch_initcall() there in next version patch series, it can make sure the change does NOT impact built-in config. For module build, the arch_initcall() will be same as module_init(), user needs to insmod the .ko with correct sequence."
