ATHEROS_AR231X and the things depending on it, like AHB bus support,
have been discussed for three years now. When will you (re)consider a
patch to remove all currently dead code?

And to state the obvious: AHB bus support, and the other code depending
on ATHEROS_AR231X, can always be re-added once ATHEROS_AR231X gets added
to the tree.

Work in progress, I don't stop it. Just work is progressing slower
than I had planned. I am already cleanup the code (mostly checkpatch
errors and warnings) and send patches to OpenWRT tree. Further I plan
to simplify initialization and I will be ready to send patches
upstream.

That's good to hear.

I need a couple of weeks for this. Is its reasonable time to not make
a mess of remove/add commits?

Removing the code just to re-add it shortly after would indeed be
awkward.

Having this conversation every rc1 is getting a bit silly. Could Jiri
e.a. perhaps set some specific deadline for ATHEROS_AR231X to be
submitted?

Thanks,


Paul Bolle
