No, I think it is the other way around. Folk like me and Nicolas over the last ten years have put considerable amounts of effort into trying to keep the ARM support code as clean and maintainable as possible. That is true of the common ARM stuff, but there's no way we can do this for all SoC support - there aren't the hours in the day to provide such a wide oversight. That's why we have SoC maintainers, and the SoC maintainers have the responsibility to sort out their own sub-trees. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
