Stephen/Thierry/Alexandre:
Can I get your review on this Tegra thing?

Can we hold off on this for a bit? I've got my own implementation of
this in my Tegra186 tree because I thought nobody else was working on
it. From a brief look they seem mostly similar but there are a couple
of differences that I need to take a closer look at (and do some more
intensive testing on).

Be careful about discouraging other developers internally from
participating upstream, Thierry.

That was certainly not my intention. I do welcome any contributions,
internal or external.

Please don't become a bottleneck for your company's contributions.
Rewriting stuff on your own isn't a scalable model.

Like I said, I didn't rewrite this, I merely wrote the GPIO driver
because there wasn't one at the time and I wasn't aware of anyone else
working on one. Waiting for a GPIO driver to emerge would've prevented
me from making progress on other fronts.
