Hi Manivannan,

it's nice to see that someone at Linaro cares about upstreaming the 96 board.
From what I can see, your patches add the very same support to the board as
does the mt6797 evaluation board. Do you have plans to upstream more drivers for
the board? Do you have a roadmap or something?

I'm asking becuase I don't want to have just another dead devicetree in the
kernel which does nothing but provides a boot to rootfs. Especially as this can
be achieved on the same board with the EVB dts.
I can understand your concern here. I do have plans to add more drivers
in the future for this board but I can't give you any roadmap for that
since it mostly falls under the spare time work and I have been doing a
similar kind of work for the Bubblegum-96 board in parallel.

At most I can guarentee that this board's functionality will be added
gradually in upcoming days.
Sounds good. Fancy to send a v2 with the comments from Rob?

Regards,
Matthias

Add devicetree support for Mediatek X20 Development Board by Archermind.
This board is based on the Deca-Core MT6797 SoC from Mediatek and is
one of the 96Boards Consumer Edition platform.

With this devicetree change, board can boot into initramfs.

More information about this board can be found in 96Boards product page:
