Hi Olof, Hi Arnd,

please consider the following enhancement to the KZM-A9-GT board by
from Morimoto-san for inclusion in 3.7.

* This pull request is based on the devel branch of
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio.git
  which is based on v3.6-rc2.

  This is to satisfy compile-time dependencies.
  Please let me know if you would like this handled a different way.

* This and a previous pull request,
  "Renesas ARM-based SoC: KZM-9A-GT for 3.7", both touch board-kzm9g.c
  but I do not believe there is a conflict.

  Please let me know if you would like this handled a different way.

Hi,

It seems like Linus W's devel branch is not a stable one, since at least the
topmost commit you pulled in from his branch is no longer available on it. This
means we can't pull it in as a dependency in arm-soc without risking merge
conflicts, etc.

So, we can't pull in this branch with its dependency without an agreement that
Linus holds a branch stable with at least the pcf857x patch on it. Linus?

OMG! OK let's claim that it's stable now then, it's close enough
to the merge window.

Ironically his was caused by a Samsung commit (IIRC) which I
applied to the GPIO tree but shouldn't be there (instead to be
funneled through ARM SoC) so I had to take it out after
a week. So maybe we're not so good off with these mixtures
of "ARM SoC pulls GPIO" vs "ACK and push it all through ARM SoC"
hm, maybe it's just one of those things we have to live with...

Yours,
Linus Walleij

It seems to me that I should rebase the my branch and it can
then go through either the ARM SoC or GPIO tree. Either is fine by me.

As an aside, the patch does include a defconfig change.
Olof, Should that be broken out into a separate patch?

Me too...

IIRC Arnd told me he actually likes when we patch defconfigs as
part of other fixes so leave it in.

Oh! And by the way, make sure you pull in the "devel" branch:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio.git devel

My "for-next" is a mixdown of fixes and devel, so the stuff that
will really go into next merge window is on devel.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
