Well, the way it went was I discovered errata after errata. Everytime I thought this is the last one and I can finally get around to that cleanup, three days later I would end up working on the next failure. I've spent so much time on it, I'm sick of it. So here's the quick mail you want: "I may or may not be able to clean up this driver in the near future. Felipe Balbi graciously agress to do it for us. So I am pleased to announce he will clean up this driver and send it upstream. If he needs any help with this, I will try to provide it to him (or anyone else for that matter) on a best-effort basis. Good luck." > > Anyways, I'll keep going with my cleanups and when I get a platform to > test ehci, I'll try to test the patches and keep going with the > workarounds. If you want help with testing, I can give it to you. If not, you can test it yourself - I couldn't care less. - Anand -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
