I know it's just a name, but there is no reason to put "linux" in the member name. It's the real device phandle value from OpenFirmware not something invented by Linux's OF layer. PowerPC uses this for something different, it records the information here using the special "linux,phandle" and "ibm,phandle" properties. See unflatten_dt_node() in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom.c before your changes. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
