Yes, so that's what I thought happened. This would have made orion/dt
depend upon mvebu/everything. It already had two other dependencies.
Not ideal.
The good thing is, the build is not broken. Once v3.8-rc1 drops with
all of our stuff merged, I'll post a fixup patch adding this back in.
It unfortunately means that Dove will be basically unbootable in
3.8-rc1, as the driver will not be clk_get()ing its gatable clock, and
the clock driver will disable it. Maybe we can just live with it, I
don't know.
Yes, I thought as much after I sent this reply. Definitely a choice of
the lesser of two evils. As long as we don't break the build or have
horrendous merge conflicts, I think it's tolerable.
Any one who is booting -rc1's is typically bug hunting. This means
Sebastian, who has been CC'd on all of this. I don't want to rely on
this in the future, but doing it once due to the circumstances is
something I'm comfortable answering to.
Jason,
sorry for the late answer. I merged all pull reqs in the order posted
on top of latest linux/master. Thomas is right, removing the clk_gate
from pinctrl potentially could have broken boot on dove. I tried it and
it _does_ boot, because the clk used by pinctrl is optional in pinctrl-dove
and there is no pinhog/device touching the register clocked by the clock.
As soon as I 'cat pinconf-groups' in debugfs, the register is read and
my cubox hangs as expected.
So, finally a fixup patch for 3.8-rc1 is ok for me.
Thanks for merging all the patches!
Sebastian
