Re: linux-next: manual merge of the arm-soc tree with the net-next tree

[Bastian Hecht]

Hello Sergei, hello Stephen,

Sergei is completely right I think. He was sceptic about the commit in
a mail some days ago already. Unfortunately I recently haven't had
access to my development environment to check what's up with this
patch. I'm sorry that it ended up to you both to deal with it. I have
written some simple bindings for the sh-eth and wanted to use it for
our DT reference version for the Armadillo board but discarded it as I
saw Nobuhiro Iwamatsu, the author of the sh-eth driver, cooked up some
more mature version. I don't see them in the next branch of Simon, so
until they appear there we can delete commit 9e0b428f079d ("ARM:
shmobile: r8a7740: Add interim sh-eth device name to clocks list")
that is only needed for sh-eth DT usage.

Thanks,

 Bastian
