Hi Vladimir,

I have already upstreamed a patch for all affected layerscape boards.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shawnguo/linux.git/commit/?h=imx/dt64&id=342ab37ecaf8c1b10dd3ca9a1271db29a6af0705

Please check whether it works for you.

Thanks, one can tell that I haven't done my due diligence of checking
Shawn's tree first. I'll cherry-pick that patch and carry on with my
work.

However, the fact still remains that Michael has expressed his opinion
regarding mmcblk0 vs mmcblk1. Do you think that we could make the
aliases a per-board option instead of per-SoC? Consider that there might
even be boards that only use SD card. It would be strange for the block
device in that case to be called /dev/mmcblk1.

Yangbo, any news on this? I'd like to have this resorted out before it is
set in stone for 5.10.
