So If someday the boards(or new boards) that need this driver becomes > active, it needs to add back this(and all required) driver(s). I understand your point, but if none of the sw using these drivers will make orphan driver and to reduce the code size atleast some thing is not used now. Ok, if any boards require these may be they will write or reuse it from past that depends on the future decision. Any comments from ML? thanks! -- Jagan.
