Dear All,
The drivers/memory directory contains generic code (of_memory.c) and a
bunch of drivers. Changes to generic code were coming usually through
different trees with the driver code.
Over last days, memory drivers grew in numbers but not necessarily in
quality. They lacked compile testing and code cleanup. Also lacked
maintainer.
I would be happy to take care about this part.
If there are no objections, the patches could go either to Linus or to
arm-soc (most of drivers are ARM specific).
Driver-specific changes in the patchset were only compile-tested. Tests
are welcome. The generic code was tested on ARMv7 Exynos based boards
with a exynos5422-dmc memory controller driver.
Overall this looks great, I had a look through the patches and commented
on the few things that seemed slightly odd though harmless.
Thanks for picking up the subsystem. How do you want to proceed
in the long run? I suppose you can send a pull request to soc-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org
to be picked up for the coming merge window as the normal way, since
you are not yet listed as the maintained until the end of the series.
Afterwards you could either send the pull requests to Linus directly,
or send them to the soc team (or to Greg) as well, the way we handle
a couple of other subsystems like drivers/reset and drivers/tee that
usually only have a handful of patches per release.
