Yes, my plan is to have what's already in the 'mvebu' branches for
3.16, i.e the migration to DT of a small number of Orion5x machines, as
well as the corresponding dependencies (pinctrl support, clock support,
etc.).
Then, for 3.17, I'll try to:
* convert more Orion5x boards to DT
* support PCIe through DT
* move to multiplatform
Of course, that's a purely tentative schedule, Orion5x is really a
spare time effort today.
Best regards,
Thomas
