It would be nice to have a spot where we collect a set of "known working" drivers. We (and Freescale) have been adding patches along the way, but at the moment, our record is that around ~75% of drivers just work, and that others require some hacking of the core PCIe glue. > Forget this patch if you believe that's not a good idea, I really > don't care if it's not applied ;-) > I'll leave this question in Otavio's capable hands.
