I've asked you for about 6 months now (ever since Arnd went on leave) to please finish his multiplatform work for Exynos. Nothing has happened. I'm not going to merge any more platform or SoC enablement code for Samsung platforms until Exynos has been converted over to multiplatform. Sorry. Well, it's hard to disagree with you on this. Keeping adding new things constantly definitely does not make us closer to multiplatform support, as it only increases codebase of code that needs to be cleaned up and made multiplatform aware. However it's not that we're not doing anything towards mutliplatform support. We're slowly getting there. A bit too slowly, but I'm afraid this is due to the fact that we have definitely too little manpower working on mainline support of Samsung SoCs. As for good news, I already have a series cleaning up PM/sleep support and making it multiplatform friendly and I'm going to post it tomorrow. The bad news is that it depends on other series and I'm not sure if we can get it merged in this release. I'll try to do whatever possible to merge things as soon as possible, though. From smaller things, we still need to sort out Exynos cpufreq driver that has dependencies on headers in plat-samsung/ and mach-exynos/. Unfortunately I don't have so much time to work on all the things at the same time, so I hope that someone else could pick this task up. Marek, Lukasz, what do you think? Regarding the cpufreq for Exynos, we do need to clean things up. It shall be possible to reuse generic cpufreq-cpu0.c and arm_big_little.c code instead of several copy pasted exynos[4|5]xxx-cpufreq.c ones. This change will require some virtual clocks implementation for atomic clocks dividers change. I've already committed myself to fix this code. When all goes smooth, I shall deliver some RFC code after new year.

I think, multiplatform support issue should be handled separately, it's up to you and arm-soc maintainers though. Well, multiplatform support _has_ been handled separately for 6 months already and as a result not much has happened. Btw, this isn't personal -- we're not handling Exynos differently from any other vendor out there. For example, we have made agreements with the Renesas developers that we will not merge any more non-multiplatform SoC support from them, and they are now working on migrating theirs over too. But Exynos is one of the last remaining large platforms that have not yet been moved over, and it's time to make it a high priority.
