Utter shit, and I've told you before.  I'm not going to repeat it again,
and I warned you that we would have a falling out.  As you seem to be
immune to my comments provided in a sane manner, I'm now just going to
ignore you in the future because you're clearly not bothering to read
anything I'm telling you.  That makes further discussion with you utterly
pointless.

You seem to see DT setups vs non-DT setups as two entirely separate things.
They are not.  We have plenty of drivers which work in both setups just
fine.

So really all of your points above are utter trash to me - really.

As to illustrate the point, my TDA19988 backend is now _just_ a slave
encoder backend, it has nothing TDA19988 specific, nor does it have
anything cubox specific there; the cubox specific part has been moved
up into dove_drv.c as pure data, and that data can be constructed
either from platform data or from OF properties parsed by dove_drv.c.

But why did I just bother to type that.  You're just going to ignore it
and keep repeating your same old claptrap.
