Well right now I'm mostly interested in making device
drivers independent of the arch/arm/*omap*/* code.
That's where Afzal's patches help quite a bit, so let's
get those in first. So from that point of view, option #1
above sounds better as the first step :)

Ideally of course option #1 should not limit us from
adding extra features in the long run.

Regards,

Tony
