So, the feedback from folks at the time this was originally written was that the MMC code was unable to cope with sharing regulators since it really needs to be able to set specific voltages. This needn't be a showstopper since people can force a single voltage in the constraints but it does need to be considered here. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
