Thanks for your comments and sorry that I disturbed you. But, honestly, I'm confused (and probably I'm not the first one) as multi_v7 is common for all ARM platforms while change is TI OMAP specific, and neither Documentation neither get_maintainer.pl provide any reliable information on how to proceed :( and who should be responsible for merging multi_x patches. I'd really have tried to do some checking while preparing patch and TO/CC list - some patches applied by platform maintainers, but some by top ARM maintainers. > > One comment on the contents of the patch: IIRC this is a fairly > large driver.
