Hmm, maybe we should skip the discussion until the patches arrived. I explained
a few things in the patch descriptions to explain the removals. For those
interested, besides the branch I mentioned before

  git://git.pengutronix.de/git/wsa/linux-2.6.git remove_stmp

there is also the web-interface for it

  http://git.pengutronix.de/?p=wsa/linux-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/remove_stmp

As mentioned, mach-mxs replacements are scheduled for 2.6.40. When those are in
place, the old ones can be removed, too.

Yup! Will do.

Regards,
