I am back in the game ;-) I am about to rebuild a pull-request with what we discussed with Olof: complete removal of old driver's platform data. You still have the possibility to queue it as a late branch for 3.6... (I keep it based on 3.5-rc, but I can rebase it on 3.6-rc1 to ease one conflict resolution when merging with current Linus' tree). Bye, -- Nicolas Ferre
