Do we want to go and move stuff back out of arch/powerpc/kernel back into arch/ppc/kernel? or just include files?What would be the point of doing that? I would think we want the opposite, in that we want to reuse as much of arch/powerpc during arch/ppc compiles as possible. Sort of shows how much is "left" to port.The point would be to keep the two trees separate, so that one doesn't need to worry about breaking arch/ppc when making a change to arch/powerpc.
Exactly so. Having to be careful about not breaking arch/ppc when doing cleanups for arch/powerpc is a pain in the bum. -- David Gibson | I'll have my music baroque, and my code david AT gibson.dropbear.id.au | minimalist, thank you. NOT _the_ _other_ | _way_ _around_! http://www.ozlabs.org/~dgibson
