I think I would support deleting mach-msm at this point. I did work on adding device tree support last year, but lost my motivation. It seems like the community has a tendency to attack things that are "old" and mach-msm seems like a constant whipping horse. I don't have plans for mach-msm., Qualcomm never cared about the remaining platforms and Google never cared either. I have no reason to care about it anymore. If someone out there still wants the code I'm game to start actively maintaining it, now that it's clear David and Bryan have completely walked away. Baring someone coming forward it seems no one else is actively using it.
