Hello Greg, thanks for your comment. You are right, this testing driver will not be built in the kernel source tree, because I intentionally didn't send patches for the corresponding Makefile, Kconfig and dts. I would try to explain the reason once again: I multiply used this testing driver with static RAM (CY62167EV30LL-45ZXI) to test mpc512x_lpbfifo driver (which is [PATCH 1/2]: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2511941/ ). I used this testing driver _instead_ of the original static RAM driver and it is an abnormal hack. Because it breaks the usual work of static RAM. That's why I just provided the code of this testing driver and didn't modify Makefile, Kconfig and dts. I hoped that the code of this testing driver will help to review mpc512x_lpbfifo in the first part of this patch. Thanks.
