So we can delete it now since there are obviously no users (no board files, no device tree support)? The logical connection between the other patches of this series is given only by the fact that patches 1+2 are for me the proof that we do not need that ti-st driver. I think since there are no in-tree users, having that proof in lkml is enough, so we can probably remove the driver now? I will send a separate remove patch including going with a brush through include/linux/ti_wilink_st.h Regards, Andreas
