This patch series includes new functionality for the Freescale fsl-mc
bus driver.

Why are people working on "new functionality" instead of working on
getting this out of the staging tree?  I really hate adding new
functions to staging drivers, as this is not the correct place for
drivers to be in the tree.  People should be working to get them out of
this location, and then you can add new functions to them.

Hi Greg,
Your reply above was for a different thread but my doubt started from
this. I was working on adding the Dual-Head support to sm7xxfb. So that
is also a new functionality which is not in the current driver as of now.
Then should i instead concentrate on getting that out of staging? If yes,
can you please have a look (when you are free) at it to see if anything
else needs to be done.

Yes, please work on getting it out of staging.

If you think it's ready, then submit a patch that moves it, copying the
proper maintainers, and I'll be glad to review it.

thanks,
