Maybe is a typo and it should be "microchip,24c128" instead ? In any case, I think this should be fixed as a separate patch and is out of scope for this series. > > > BTW, has the driver change merged? > No, it hasn't been merged yet but there's no strict order in which the changes should be picked so the DTS patches can be applied independently. I haven't had feedback from Wolfram yet, but he was the one who suggested this and so I guess he will be Ok with the driver changes. > > > -- > Best Regards > Masahiro Yamada Best regards, Javier
