Sorry for the delay. If you want to use the same patch for the mainline
kernel and linux-omap kernel, you may need to edit the Makefile and Kconfig
manually.

But since you have the ldp board already in the mainline kernel, all you
need to do is to send me patches against the mainline kernel to add
various support bits still missing from the mainline board file. Exactly
what you did with for smc support (Well I had to cut out the smc driver
bits):

ARM: OMAP3: LDP: Add Ethernet device support to make ldp boot succeess

in the current omap3-upstream series:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=omap3-upstream

So just send patches to add the rest of the devices, OK? Make sure it
compiles with the mainline kernel, so exclude the drivers that are not
there yet.

Cheers,

Tony
