I moved some headers to asm-generic how Arnd recommended to me. The same style is applied to of files. If you think that is good idea to start with new topic what is necessary to move to asm-generic, I agree. For me is not hard to move these files back to asm-microblaze and then someone can do big patch among all archs. If you want to managed, please open new discussion about and cc me.
