Subject: [PATCH 2/2] dt: mailbox: Remove 'mbox-names property is discouraged' message from binding
Date: Mon, 11 May 2015 17:08:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1431360531-31337-2-git-send-email-lee.jones@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1431360531-31337-1-git-send-email-lee.jones@linaro.org>

A new API call has been introduced which allows channels to be
requested by name.  This new call uses the 'mbox-names' property,
so users need no further discouragement from supplying it.
