Re: MPC8272- Porting HDLC driver from 2.6.14 to 2.6.27- "no_irq_chip" error

I would object that you wouldn't have this problem if you weren't hard
wiring your interrupt number and were using the device-tree properly
instead. As to getting your patch merged, you'll have to argue with
Scott Wood who, I think, maintains the CPM2 stuff lately.
I fully agree that the proper way is using the device tree. I can't recall
exactly why this wasn't an option to me a year ago, but I assume it had
something to do with this ugly out-of-tree-driver. I wouldn't really argue
about this patch, I just thought it might be useful as it seems there are
people trying to do the same for some reason. Then again, maybe it should be
skipped, as it makes it easier to not use the proper solution (= device tree)
:)

Kind regards,
