Re: future of drivers/macintosh (was Re: CONFIG_PPC != Mac)

quoted

I don't think there's real need anymore for an adb directory. The only
file in it would be adb.c. The mouse and kbd drivers are moving to input,
the controller drivers (Cuda,PMU) do not only ADB but all sort of other
machine admin tasks (like power control, I2C, ...) and so are needed even
whithout ADB support as part of "PowerMac" support. Cuda can be shared
with m68k, maybe PMU too, so drivers/macintosh is not a so bad place

for it.

would it be a prudent move to relocate most of drivers/macintosh to
drivers/char, with the exception of mediabay.c to drivers/block/mac-
mediabay.c?

Something that fits the current layout scheme in a bi-partisan way.

Hum... The system controllers are not char drivers (well, PMU can be
occasionally), mediabay is not really a block driver, and I fell those
generic char and block drivers are already quite messy.
