Hi Tony,

Are you considering adding this patch and

ARM: OMAP2+: omap2plus_defconfig: enable TFP410 chip support [1]

to the 3.8-rc series or 3.9?

These patches have been acked by Tomi and are necessary to have
framebuffer video working on many OMAP3 based boards.

Thanks a lot and best regards,
Javier
