== Linus Walleij linusw ==

=== Highlights ===

* Working on AB8500 GPIO as it is a roadblock for the multiplatform, as it is a SPARSE_IRQ regression. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/ab8500-gpio-shapeup Second iteration of the patch pushed to linux-next thru pinctrl. Next step is to merge Lee Jones' IRQ fixup patches and test.

* Merged pinctrl device core grabbing patch after a final touch-up by Stephen Warren and following Greg's ACK. Now we know we will definately have this nice infrastructure in v3.9. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/pinctrl-corehog

* Requested Torvalds to pull in a bunch of GPIO fixes and he pulled them in.

* Reviewed and stacked up a few GPIO patches. Proposed two minor cleanups to the pca driver.

* Reviewed and stacked up not-so-few pinctrl patches, including some ACKing of the big SH pinctrl business going on.

* Requested pull for three ux500 v3.8 fixes.

* Requested pull for Nomadik (mach-nomadik) device tree patch set.

* Iterated a patch form Nomadik I2C pinctrl. Wolfram merged it, after fixing my mistakes, and he wrote yet another cleanup patch as well, nice!

* Iterated a patch to U-Boot enabling device tree on the Integrator.

=== Plans ===

* First fix the AB8500 GPIO mess.

* Get and ACK for the missing <mach/id.h> removal dependency from the MFD maintainer.

* Attack the remaining headers in arch/arm/mach-ux500 so we can move forward with multiplatform for v3.9.

* Convert Nomadik pinctrl driver to register GPIO ranges from the gpiochip side.

* Test the PL08x patches on the Ericsson Research PB11MPCore and submit platform data for using pl08x DMA on that platform.

* Look into other Ux500 stuff in need of mainlining... using an internal tracking sheet for this.

* Get hands dirty with regmap.

=== Issues ===

* N/A (just overly busy as usual)
