The patch titled

platform-device driver for MQ11xx graphics chip

has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is

platform-device-driver-for-mq11xx-graphics-chip.patch

drivers/platform/.tmp_versions/mq11xx_base.mod | 2


I doubt that should be there...



drivers/platform/Kconfig | 23 drivers/platform/Makefile | 5 drivers/platform/mq11xx.h | 925 ++++++++++++++++
drivers/platform/mq11xx_base.c | 1390 +++++++++++++++++++++++++



I'm also still wondering if drivers/mfd would be better in the long term
for code like this (as mentioned in various threads on LKML). That way
it is doesn't have to be platform device specific...



I do not have a problem with moving these drivers to drivers/mfd. I do want to have a policy that says where such drivers should go.
