A few weeks ago, I was telling Boris to let it not build for a while and
then remove it. You already went out of your way to make it work. Again,
feel free to send a patch removing avr32. I can only see a lot of
benefits for the Atmel ARM SoCs and the many cleanups that will follow.  

Agree, I can't help but feel that the AVR32 support is doing more harm
than good at this point.  

I also agree on this, I can relate to Nicolas (and Atmel friends) having to
always think about the less-maintained AVR32 parts when improving drivers.

Indeed, that should make atmel drivers maintainance a bit easier.

If nobody complains about the 4.10 breakage, You'll have plenty of time
to remove it for 4.12  

I'm fine with that, but I haven't put much effort into keeping it
alive lately. If Hans-Christian agrees, I'm willing to post a patch to
remove it, or ack someone else's patch.  

Then lets plan this for 4.12, either you Håvard whip up a patch or I can
eventually do it.

I can push it through the linux-avr32 git tree on kernel.org.

Can you do that just after 4.11-rc1 is released and provide a topic
branch I can pull in my nand/next branch, so that I can rework this
patch and drop all the pdata-compat code (as suggested by Andy).

Thanks,

Boris
