Start by adding each new MMC_CAP2* separately and without involving the DT parsing. Make the DT documentation patch come after the above, and add a new separate patch which exposes the caps to device tree. In that way, I can pick up the non DT parts and wait for Rob's ack/nack of the DT bindings.

I will do it and I think Doug was asking we to drop the "cap-" prefix which I think need to be clarified before sending non-RFC one. :) > > Start by adding each new MMC_CAP2* separately and without involving > the DT parsing. > > Make the DT documentation patch come after the above, and add a new > separate patch which exposes the caps to device tree. > > In that way, I can pick up the non DT parts and wait for Rob's > ack/nack of the DT bindings. > > Kind regards > Uffe > >> Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/mmc.txt | 3 +++ >> drivers/mmc/core/core.c | 10 +++++----- >> drivers/mmc/core/host.c | 6 ++++++ >> include/linux/mmc/host.h | 2 ++ >> 4 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) >> >> -- >> 2.3.7 >> >> >> -- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in >> the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > > > -- Best Regards Shawn Lin
