OK, since vchiq_arm has no additional dependencies beyond the camera
please explain exactly why the camera is being compiled for i386 but
vchiq_arm isn't.  I think we definately need to get to the bottom of
this.

It depends RASPBERRYPI_FIRMARE or COMPILE_TEST.  The kbuild bot has
COMPILE_TEST enabled so that solves the mystery of why the build failed.

I have no idea what your talking about but I try to forget emails right
away so that I'll be able to answer honestly that, "I don't recall" in
case I am ever asked to testify in front of the United States senate.

This business with multiple lists *is* very annoying.  Patches to do
with kernel code should be sent to driver-devel.

OK, thanks for sending it to me.

I don't quite understand how that is possible in all since the whole
subtree depends on RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE which I had nothing to do with
setting up.  Sounds to me like the real issue here is that the
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMARE driver wasn't setup correctly in the first place. 
I also noticed when I was trying to understand how the raspberrypi
driver works in the first place in that it doesn't always dump the
firmware revision correctly if the DT node mbox handle gets pointed to
who knows where.

I've been complaining about very selective e-mails on so called public
e-mail lists for a very long time now, and nobody has done anything
about it. Sometimes I don't get any e-mail for a week and then I'll get
a flood of e-mail thats 2 weeks old.  And who knows which e-mails lists
changes are going to. Some changes are getting in under the radar by
others and other changes have every line criticized.

I have been honestly testing all the changes I have submitted, and most
of them have been small.  But they have caused things to work when they
don't work at all before.

The problem is that you added a function only for ARM but the camera
can build on i386.

Anyway, we need to figure out why you aren't getting the kbuild emails
and fix that.  I forwarded the first email to you.  The other is
basically the same.

Hi, can you e-mail out the errors or send them to me.  It worked when
I submitted it.

I'm not going to review this because it has kbuild errors.
