Actually it's probably best if I just take your commit 0c6f1498 (ARM: omap: move platform_data definitions) into my cleanup branch to avoid the dependency of getting acks from all the subarch maintainers. That's because I want to base more things on this patch that will cause merge conflicts otherwise. Also, Peter Ujfalusi wanted to change the dsp-mcbsp.h name to ti-mcbsp.h. I can post the updated patch assuming hat's OK with you Arnd? Regards, Tony
