Moreover it has been found in the past as a blockage to further fixes in vchiq as every change needed its vchi counterpart, if even possible. Hence this series, which merges all vchi functionality into vchiq and provies a simpler and more concise API to services. I'm aware that kernel's vchi API tries to mimic its userspace counterpart (or vice versa). Obviously this breaks the parity, but I don't think it's a sane goal to have. There is little sense or gain from it, and adds impossible constraints to upstreaming the driver. Overall the series falls short of removing 1500 lines of code, which is pretty neat on itself. So far it has been tested trough bcm2835-camera, audio and vchiq-test. I can't do much about vc-sm-cma for now, but the changes are done in a way that shouldn't affect its behaviour. Note that the series builds up on RPi/Laurent's camera support series[1] and can't yet be merged. We'd have to coordinate here. We could either wait for the vc_sm_cma rework (if it's not going to take months and months to finish), or factor out all the vc-sm-cma stuff, merge that into the downstream kernel and take the rest of the series on top of Laurent's mmal-vchiq changes.
