This is a piece of davinci hardware, but introduces drivers in various subsystems. I'm willing to merge this series via the davinci tree after getting acks from the various subsystem maintainers. Is this an OK approach? It seems best to me to merge this all together. We already have acks for the regulator and gpio driver parts, and the backlight driver has a clear owner in MAINTAINERS. However, who should be doing the final review/ack of the drivers/misc and drivers/gpio changes is less clear to me. Any advice appreciated, Thanks, Kevin > arch/arm/mach-davinci/board-tnetv107x-evm.c | 199 +++++++ > arch/arm/mach-davinci/devices-tnetv107x.c | 25 + > arch/arm/mach-davinci/include/mach/ti_ssp.h | 98 ++++ > arch/arm/mach-davinci/include/mach/tnetv107x.h | 2 + > arch/arm/mach-davinci/tnetv107x.c | 2 +- > drivers/gpio/Kconfig | 10 + > drivers/gpio/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/gpio/ti-ssp-gpio.c | 200 +++++++ > drivers/misc/Kconfig | 11 + > drivers/misc/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/misc/ti_ssp.c | 436 +++++++++++++++ > drivers/regulator/Kconfig | 10 + > drivers/regulator/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/regulator/tps6524x-regulator.c | 692 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ > drivers/spi/Kconfig | 7 + > drivers/spi/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/spi/spi_ti_ssp.c | 397 ++++++++++++++ > drivers/video/backlight/Kconfig | 7 + > drivers/video/backlight/Makefile | 2 +- > drivers/video/backlight/tps6116x.c | 340 ++++++++++++
