Hi Krzysztof Kozlowski,

However, you haven’t addressed the main reason for my objection.
"removing these DTS settings will make what was originally
a simple task more complicated."

I think I understand your point now, you believe that opposing
this patch means opposing community participation and support, right?
But it’s clear that you haven’t carefully considered the main 
reason for my objection?

Sorry, I still don’t quite understand why having people who
know the SoC better maintain the SoC driver would be considered
harmful to the community?
Also, I still don’t see the relation between opposing the
unnecessary complication patch and the downstream?
Can you tell me why I should accept code that I feel is 
unreasonable to be merged? Instead of repeatedly telling me 
that my objection is about downstream or something like that.

I must reiterate that I do not oppose patches that are 
beneficial to the community; I only object to patches that are 
not helpful.

Thanks
Peter
