Please let's not do that! That breaks booting and git bisect. It's better to have a minimal branch where each patch boots fine. Also, I think you should at least print a warning for the old binding. Otherwise people with out of tree boards will have hard time updating their patches to send to mainline tree. > Do you want me to send you the DT patches separately or you can > pick up patches 18 to 26? Sounds like some things need to be rearranged a bit first though :) Regards, Tony
