</div>Would not it make more sense to use mach-bcm281xx as a directory name instead<br>
of mach-bcm which sounds a tad too generic? This would also make it consistent<br>
with Domenico's mach-bcm47xx and the existing bcm47xx and bcm63xx MIPS-based<br>
SoC support.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm following the other mobile ARM SoCs which all have a single mach- directory for various families of chips (mach-tegra, mach-omap2, etc...). Plus the intent is to have a single set of mach files that works across bcm SoCs, so it is preferable to keep it in a single mach-bcm.</div>
