Fate of OMAP3-Touchbook board
Hello,
a few months ago, Always Innovating - a company behind their OMAP3 based product Touchbook basically stopped production. I've been porting some specific drivers for current kernels since then and I'd like to push at least some of them to the mainline.
However, I found a bug in mainline that prevents this device from booting - and looks like noone has reported it for a few months. So, I'd like to ask - do you want to keep this board in mainline (in this case, I can send a few patches adding few drivers (backlight, accelerometer, soundcard, keyboard). Or do you want to remove it from the mainline altogether?
Thanks for the answer

The fix should be posted for -rc cycle. Minimal patches for the board-*.c files are OK, but we should put most effort making things usable with device tree based booting.
