Ok. Greg, The patches to drop from tty-testing are: * 405017d Document: Modify 8250 earlycon kernel parameters * 0dff3a4 tty: serial: 8250_mtk: Add earlycon * b829735 tty: serial: Add 8250 earlycon to support noinit option Regards, Peter Hurley -- 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/
