The purpose of the API, as defines itself is meant to be generic and architecture neutral, and the few functions it defines are. Since I needed some GPIO helpers for the RDC R-321x SoC, I picked up this one. Now if you want to propose another one go ahead, and I will rebase my code on top of yours. -- Cordialement, Florian Fainelli ------------------------------ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
