Sounds like good plan :)

Btw, while waiting.... Digging the web clearing different things around
ssb/axi found few broadcom ssb docs some of you maybe find interesting
to look through.
http://read.pudn.com/downloads127/doc/fileformat/537112/mips/bcm5836/5836-5836P-PG01-RDS.pdf
http://www.broadcom.com/collateral/pg/440X-PG02-R.pdf

Also, one more question to Arend:
could you please ask if there are any plans on lifting UNPUBLISHED
PROPRIETARY for GMAC core driver sources (etcgmac.c, have this core at
bcm4716-based ASUS N16, might used at other bcm471X socs as well) or
possibly Broadcom could publish some doc for the chip?

Have nice day,
George
