And ideally this would be done in smaller steps as these will conflict with all the other pending patches. For example, I have a pile of pending omap clock clean-up dts patches posted and tested waiting for v5.19-rc1 to apply. I'd rather not start redoing or fixing up the patches with sed :) What I'd like to have see is that at some point when suitable we move one machine at a time with a script if possible.. Maybe the dtb files generated would need to remain in the current directory until all of the machine dts files are moved? That should help with the build scripting too probably :) In general I like the idea though and I think we should do it. Regards, Tony
