I'm not sure if fixing that would be worth it. Should we instead try to
replace kzm9g-legacy and kzm9g-reference by kzm9g-multiplatform in v3.20 ?
What are we missing ?
- The DIV6 multiparent series has been merged by Mike, and the sh73a0 CCF is
nearly ready.
- We need proper BSC support to get LAN working, although it could be worked
around temporarily by specifying the BSC clock in the LAN node if I recall
correctly.
- MMCIF and SDHI are present.
- Sound support is there as far as I can tell, but possibly without DMA.
- Touchscreen and magnetometer have DT bindings but are not instantiated in
the dts at the moment. That should be easy to fix.
- Accelerometer and RTC have no DT bindings, but they should work with the I2C
core OF match support.
- We're loosing USBHS (driver supports OF but doesn't cover sh73a0), USB host
(no OF support in driver) and LCDC (no OF support in driver).
All but USBHS, USB host and LCDC should be possible to support in v3.20
without too much issues, depending on the effort we can put in this.
