Subject: [RFC PATCH 13/13] switchtec_ntb: update switchtec documentation with notes for ntb
Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2017 14:37:29 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170615203729.9009-14-logang@deltatee.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170615203729.9009-1-logang@deltatee.com>

The switchtec_ntb driver has a couple requirements on the switchec's
hardware configuration so we add these notes to the documentation.

+Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) Driver
+===================================
+
+An NTB driver is provided for the switchtec hardware in switchec_ntb.
+Currently, it only supports switches configured with exactly 2
