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).      
OK, I will try to prepare it during the weekend.

Any reason to wait for 4.11-rc1? AFAIK Linus prefers the larger changes
before he starts tagging rc's.
    
Oh, so you want to queue it for 4.11, that's even better.    
Perhaps I misunderstood you, by after 4.11-rc1 you mean queue it for 4.12?

I will see what I get around to do in the weekend, it should be pretty
straightforward, just want to make sure we remove all the bits.
  
Any progress on this? I plan to send a new version of this series soon
and I'd like to know if I should drop pdata/avr32 support or not. Note
that I'm targeting 4.12, so, as long as you drop avr32 support in 4.12
we should be good.  
I got around to make the patch series during the weekend, but I thought it
would be a good idea sending them to the kernel mailing list as a FYI.
Definitely.
Also, I was unsure if I should send the driver removals through the
sub-maintainers trees, or if I can push them through linux-avr32 tree.
I think it should go through the sub-maintainers trees, but I guess you
can remove the arch code without breaking the build, so it shouldn't be
a problem if drivers removal don't go through the avr32 tree.
I have a patch removing the pata driver for AVR32.
Great! Just send everything to the MLs (and relevant maintainers).

Thanks,

Boris
