The modules are dropped as per what is going for 3.10 merge window.
Above 3 modules can be retained if the DT conversion patches are
under review and can go along with this patch most likely for 3.11.

It doesn't break any concept. We just autogenrate what is *useful* rather.
BTW, I didn't find any srcipt to auto-generate the AM33XX data so we have
to manually do the updates. Can you send me a pointer if you have a sript
for this. With script it is much simpler to clean-up the data.

That we are doing anyways. Apart from that we should also clean-up data
which is not used and useful. Why do you need unused data like firewall and
friends ? 

So as I understood, you would like to keep the data for ADC, PWM and GPMC
which is fine by me. We just need those DT bindings in place so that they
go together. Who is following the DT patches for these ? 

Thanks for looking into it Vaibhav.
