(in the submitted xusb series, the node isn't actually named, though. I will fix this in v2) - Mikko On 05/06/14 20:29, Stephen Warren wrote: > On 06/04/2014 05:32 AM, Mikko Perttunen wrote: >> Hi, >> >> This series adds support for the onboard AHCI-compliant Serial ATA >> controller found on Tegra124 systems-on-chip.
