So rename ARCH_HI3xxx later. > Are you kidding me? We JUST merge your platform after a very painful review with many fumbly cycles, and the very first thing you do is rename it? I even complained about the crazy numbering and naming, and you didn't fix it while we were in review, and now just days after we merge the patches this one comes out? For now, we'll drop your original branch and fold in these patches with the original ones. There's no point in checking in a platform just to rename it, so we'll do the fixups. No further action is required on your behalf right now but it will be a while until we sort this out. It's at the back of the queue of things to deal with right now. -Olof
