You are welcome. :)

I have no strong preference here. Not sure, what the common practice is. But I 
can remove the numbers on those single instance devices.

This is the non-DT file (spear600_evb.c). I wanted to preserve it, so that it 
still can be built. But thinking a bit more about it, the current mainline 
SPEAr600 port only supports UART and GPIO as peripheral devices. And this 
SPEAr600 DT patch also supports those and even more devices.

So why don't we make an even bigger "cut", and remove the non-DT SPEAr600 
files/data completely now? If you give me your ACK on this, I'll squash this 
into my patch as well, resulting in a nice diffstat. ;)

Not yet. Sorry, I missed it. Will check now...

Thanks,
