The problem is that much of the interesting bits in tegra_mc_soc are basically incompatible between the two. For instance the tegra_mc_client and tegra186_mc_client structures, while they have the same purpose, have completely different content. I didn't see a way to unify that without overly complicating things by making half of the fields basically optional on one or the other SoC generation. Maybe one option would be to split tegra_mc into a tegra_mc_common and then derive tegra_mc and tegra186_mc from that. That way we could share the common bits while still letting the chip-specific differences be handled separately. Thierry
