I am not sure it makes sense to add an error message here. It is very
unlikely we will get an error here. The only purpose would be debugging
while writing a DT node for this driver. With the DT binding document,
I think it is quite hard to make it wrong. Moreover, while writing this
code, I didn't need messages here.

But if you think that error messages are needed anyway, I'll be glad to
add them.

No we can't. This was the main purpose for the v2. delay_{on,off} are
unsigned long and of_property_read_u32_index expects u32. On an 64-bit
big endian machine, this code is broken. Even if this driver will never
be used on a such architecture, it is still a mistake. Moreover, it has
been reported by Dan Carpenter that the static code checker was not
happy about that.

That's why we are using an intermediary variable here.

It is probably true that the next patch makes it inconsistent. But even
if there is no more "board setup" code to fill pdata, I think it may be
convenient to still support this mechanism.

About the board file removal, it is safe. AFAIK, for this boards, users
will update the Linux and DTB images together. Backward compatibility
between Linux and the earlier DTB version is not supported. Else we
would have to keep this board file forever and I am pretty sure that
the mvebu maintainers will disagree about that :)

For the original patch set version (Linux 4.0 at the time), I have used
the mvebu_v5_defconfig. Now I am using a lighter configuration because
I don't need to build the whole mvebu stuff.

What kind of error do you get ? I remember something about setting
CONFIG_HZ to 250.

Thanks,

Simon
