[Linus Walleij]

== Linus Walleij linusw ==

=== Highlights ===

* Rebased the gpio.h cleanups from Linaro connect on top of
  Russells gpio.h cleanup patchset and mailed it out:
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=131297866928334&w=2

* Submitted an update of the DBx500 PRCMU drivers
  carved out from the internal ST-Ericsson 3.0-based git:
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131313768415616&w=2

* RealView PB11MPCore, TCM support and TCM fixes
  merged for 3.1
 http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=130944303522448&w=2
 http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=130944291922298&w=2
 http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=130944294622342&w=2

* I now have a working Integrator AP setup, also sent two
  patches for it:
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=131037711822519&w=2
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=131189136402449&w=2
  First patch merged for v3.1-rc1 through Arnds tree

* DMA40 patches merged for 3.1
 http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130916853306730&w=2

* Fix to RMI4 staging driver merged for 3.1
 http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130941558024742&w=2

* Fixed a PL022 bug reported by Russell King, merged for 3.1.

* Reviewed David Browns patches for moving and refactoring
  the qualcomm GPIO drivers.

* Various upstreamed patches for AB8500, STMPE, MMCI...

* Reviewed Viresh Kumar's patches to the PL08x DMA
  driver.

* Reviewed Samsungs patches to the PL08x DMA driver.

* Discussed pinmux/pinctrl subsystem at Linaro Connect,
  not much to say about it, input was that the number space
  for each pinmux controller need to be local to the controller
  and we should avoid a global numberspace.


=== Plans ===

* New iteration of the pinctrl + pinmux subsystem

* Finalize the gpio.h cleanups

* Drive generalization of U300 and Nomadik GPIO

* Get into struct clk generalization and movement of clk
 drivers into drivers/clk - handover from Jeremy Kerr.
 We will do this in Cambridge or something like that.


=== Issues ===

* GPIO pincontrol aspects stalled on the mailing list,
  who cares, directing my attention elsewhere FTM.

* Shanghaiied for some internal conflict resolution
 at ST-Ericsson. Not too much though.


Thanks,
Linus Walleij
