Hi Russell,

Further to my previous pull request:

... it looks like Alessandro's proposed change to tidy up scripts/mod/
ile2alias.c may get merged soon -- if that happens, you will get a
conflict with the second patch of the series referenced by the previous
pull request.  Fixing it up is straightforward -- if you prefer to
resolve the conflict yourself, that's fine by me.  Alternatively, you
can pull the following modified series instead.

The only difference is in the second patch
("ARM: amba: Auto-generate AMBA driver module aliases during modpost").

Cheers

No, I don't think it will happen. Rusty disagrees, and his own
suggestion is in the queue. I'm waiting a while to understand
what is happening.

Anyways, I think it's better for me to wait for amba to come in, and
work on scripts/mod later on. After all, it's meant to ease adding new
buses later, not to make it more difficult for already scheduled ones.

OK -- thanks for the clarification.


Russell, it sounds like you shouldn't get a merge conflict with the
original version of the series after all.

For reference, the original pull request is here:

Hi Russell,

This one isn't urgent, but I'm not seeing the amba modalias patches
anywhere yet.  Did you have any outstanding concerns which need to be
resolved?

If you can suggest when/if these are likely to merge that would be great.

Since Alessandro is now expecting to have to rebase on top of the amba
additions anyway, we shouldn't need to worry about conflicting with his
patches.

Of course, if you've already merged these somewhere, then there's no
problem.

Cheers
---Dave

I have pulled it, I just haven't merged it in anywhere yet.

OK, great -- thanks.

I wasn't too familiar with the procedure, so I just wanted
to be sure that I hadn't done things wrong.

Have a good Christmas in the meantime!

FYI, I'll be pushing out an update to my tree Friday evening.
