Hi Roland,

The patch look all good, but it's not clear where you would like to see them applied. The largest one "ARM: LPC32xx: Fix missing and bad LPC32XX macros" looks like it is only of cosmetic nature and should go into the next/fixes-non-critical branch for v3.4, while the others look like they are requried for v3.3, some of them also for earlier versions. Remember that any bug fix that applies to older kernels should have a "Cc: stable at vger.kernel.org" tag so that Greg can automatically pick up the fixes and port them to the stable and longterm releases.

Hi Arnd and Wolfram,

thanks for your notes!

Right. I replaced the mentioned branch with

* lpc32xx/fixes-non-critical (singled out the macros fixes, for next)
* lpc32xx/fixes (the remaining 5 patches as immediate fixes)

Please note that although it's a typo fix in the macros, it's also an internal API change.

I also added the stable-CC to the "lpc32xx/fixes" and added the note about NXP's HW bugfix as suggested by Wolfram.

I'll regenerate the pull request. Please tell me if you also like to have the patches re-posted.

Thanks in advance,

Roland

I would not regard that patch any different because it changes symbol names in the header file: The kernel internal API has absolutely no relevance and can be changed in any (helpful) way as long as you change all the in-kernel users at the same time.

Ok, thanks a lot! There is no need to resend the patches, since they have not changed.

Arnd

Applied to "fixes" branch.

Thanks,

Arnd

Ok, pulled into next/fixes-non-critical now. Thanks,

Arnd
