Or, has that requirement been dropped. If it has, we can drop a bunch of code from a variety of Tegra-specific drivers, I expect.Do you have an actual user for this? If not, then don't borrow trouble. Just drop it. Things like platform_data can always be added later only if it is needed.Currently all our board supports DT. we are not using any driver instantiated by board files. I will remove the platform data for current patch and if it is require then will add later with reasoning. Hope this will be fine with Stephen also so that this basic patch can be included into tree soon.
I'm fine with it; it's just a change in policy that hadn't been communicated before.
