Re: [PATCH 3/8 v2] mtd: Add MPC5121 NAND Flash Controller driver

Dear Grant Likely,

In message [ref] you wrote:

+               return -ENXIO;
+       }
*Only* revision 2?  Are future revisions of silicon assumed to be broken then?
I vote for keeping it this way - if you look at the diffferences
between revision 1 and 2, or at differences between MPC5121/3 and
MPC5125, it is more than likely that revision 3, should it ever come
out, will be incompatible and require driver changes.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
