Nicolas has been the de-facto maintainer of AT91 for quite a while now, even though more of them are listed on the maintainers entry. It would be inappropriate to merge something that he disagreed with on that platform. > ARM SoC maintainers input would be welcomed. It seems appropriate to ask the at91 folks to come back with a solution that everybody is OK with, and until then hold off merging this. -Olof -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
