I can't recall exactly why this wasn't an option to me a year ago, but I assume it had something to do with this ugly out-of-tree-driver. I wouldn't really argue about this patch, I just thought it might be useful as it seems there are people trying to do the same for some reason. Then again, maybe it should be skipped, as it makes it easier to not use the proper solution (=3D device t= ree) :) Kind regards, Wolfram --=20 Pengutronix e.K. | Wolfram Sang | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | --azLHFNyN32YCQGCU Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkokrLsACgkQD27XaX1/VRsOmACgpRuB6DdZ+AXxjPhrZtdgP7Co TRMAoIt0uiNzpkRdWU2SaJSlJerohr3W =p4cK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --azLHFNyN32YCQGCU--
