Hi Tony,

I resend a v2 today: [PATCH v2 1/1] ARM: OMAP2+: omap2plus_defconfig:
enable devtmpfs and automount

That fixes an issue in the patch comments. Sekar Nori pointed out that
the first udev to make this a requirement was 176 not 182.
So probably is better if you can apply that one instead.

Thanks a lot and best regards,
Javier
