I don't have a problem adding support for testing that property and skipping most of the initial HW setup, basically treating the endpoint as pre-configured. What about using a value for "status" ? Or an empty "configured" property ? Ideally, it should have been the other way around, ie "unconfigured" for old/buggy stuff but I'm worried there may be existing out-of-tree device-trees without it :-) Cheers, Ben _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
