Coming back to this patch now as I have time to look at it, what is the general opinion, is it acceptable to patch the regulator core to add support for the external controller or should I just resend the latest version with changes Mark suggested? This will probably mean that once we add new regulator drivers (e.g. pmics) we may need to duplicate the external controller support here. -Tero -- 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
