This breaks existing userspace builds, it breaks modules, it messes with the history and it breaks third prty DT files. It's an absolute no-no. Yes this happens - it's happened before and will happen again. She who merges first wins. If Cadence had submitted a driver first they'd have won 8) The following aspects of the change set are IMHO acceptable - Cleaning up all the code formatting - Update the driver comments and header to explain the Cadence/Xilinx thing - change "Xilinx PS UART Support" text to "Cadence (Xilinx PS) Support" or similar wording in Kconfig - Adding the cadence devicetree compatibility strings and inputs *in addition* to the existing ones. - Documentation for the new options Alan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
