Cover letter [PATCH 0/6] ARM: Add support for Broadcom BCM476x SoCs

Additional support is being worked on.... and usb (DWC OTG) only attemped reusing s3c-hsotg.

Hmmm. I believe the bcm2835 uses DWC OTG. I wonder if the same driver will work there; USB in particular is a major pain point on the bcm2835...

I don't know any more how many versions of this driver are circulating, we may have some options.

It's based on a random pre v3.7-rc1 commit (eb0ad9c) with mainlined multi-platform support and Stephen's patch to add DEBUG_LL to it.

...
about uncompress.h now. Unless anyone really pipes up and says they'd still like me to pursue uncompress.h in multi-platform, I'm inclined to drop it.

I think it is valuable, multi-platform doesn't have any DEBUG_LL or earlyprintk support and your patch solves the problem though it won't work transparently on multiple boards at the same time, which is not a requirement.

To my understanding Nico was complaining for the specific Tegra (and TI) abuse, not the general approach.

Special thanks go to Stephen Warren who, with the recently mainlined BCM2835, showed how to do things cleanly since the beginning and involuntarily spurred me to act.

Thanks! Do note that much of the code I upstreamed was originally written by others, although I did make quite a few changes during upstream submission.

Yes, of course :)

Domenico
