In order to convert Loongson1 MAC platform devices to the devicetree
nodes, Loongson1 MAC arch-code should be moved to the driver dir.
In other words, this patchset is a preparation for converting
Loongson1 platform devices to devicetree.It is a long time since i converted an ARM system from platform data to DT. But what we tended to do was to allow both for a period of time. Does a system using platform data still work after this change? The first patch seems to delete a lot of code, not just move it around. Can you restructure this patchset to add the glue layer and DT binding in parallel with platform data. Then have a patchset which convert all in tree machines to using DT. And then a patchset, submitted in maybe 6 months time, to remove support for platform data. Andrew
