Please do not add any features to the patchset.
When you add a feature, that tends to reset the review process.
For little stuff.
I need to look at the documentation again, iirc that was the only issue
in v6.
For big stuff.
At the beginning some possible refactor questions were raised, I don't
know if they have been resolved.
ex/
some of the leaf drivers like clock should be moved the clock subsystem
the xrt/ dir vs existing flat, we don't want both.
is your xrt bus consistent with dfl bus, can it support adding devices
outside of fpga/xrt
how clean are the public headers
Since flipflopping on refactoring is a painful, let's try to get a
consensus before moving forward.
This may mean the patchset is committed by parts as it and the existing
code changes.
Lets start with the directory structure.
Since there are a lot of files in xrt, the xrt/ makes sense.
For other fpga's with a lot of files, say > 3, we need to change ex/
dfl-foo.c to dfl/foo.c
to be consistent.
The Kconfig and Makefiles for xrt/ and dfl/ would only be in that top
subdir.
Which i think is a change for xrt/
I'll whip up something for dfl/ to move things along.
