Subject: [PATCH RFC 0/3] i2c-nomadik changes
Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 19:45:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1338398567.git.rubini@gnudd.com> (raw)

The patch set turns a platform device into an amba device. Its users,
i.e. mach-ux500, are converted too.  The set has no external
dependencies, although is has no visible effect until other patches
are accepted.

Reasoning:

In the STA2X11 I/O hub we are exporting a number of AMBA peripherals
to the PCI world. Using a generic pci-amba driver there is no further
code for each device, provided they are already registered under the
AMBA bus.  I already submitted the generic bridge
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/28/194).

Status of this patch set:

The users of the driver (i.e. mach-ux600) compile properly, but I
couldn't test on any board.  The driver, as is, works on x86 under the
PCI bridge, with the not-yet-upstream clock framework and platform
data for sta2x11 devices.  However, this set is not introducing any
dead code as it only adds more flexibility.  The big part of it is a
massive s/platform_device/amba_device/ and s/pdev/adev/ .

The cell-id I used in the table are the one for ux500 (only as far as
I know from the stn-8815 manuals) and the one for STA2X11.

Alessandro Rubini (3):
  i2c-nomadik: move header from <plat/i2c.h> to <linux/i2c-nomadik.h>
  i2c-nomadik: turn the platform driver to an amba driver
  i2c-nomadik: depend on ARM_AMBA, not PLAT_NOMADIK
