For example, imx-drm's crtc components are completely silent, like Dove's armada-drm components as well. etnaviv is actually silent from the component bind functions: it's only afterwards when we initialise the GPUs that were found that we print anything there. So, I don't deem them to be redundant. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net.
