Its not an optimal solution but it at least makes the code compile/work. Gabor and myself have also accumulated a pile of other patches. In addition to the 8 patch series that splits the pci/generic code, there is a 20 patch series, that adds rt3662/rt3883 support, a 7 patch series that adds rt5350 support and another 8 patches that add OF support. I am planning to setup a git tree with all these after easter and then send them to the list for review. Ideally these patches all make it into 3.10 as we will also be merging the remaining Ralink SoC patches via the linux-mips tree for 3.10 (with the exception of the ethernet driver as it will need a rewrite before I can send it upstream) John
