Applied to target-arm.next, thanks. (I tweaked a couple of commit
messages as mentioned in replies to those patches.)
Great, and thanks for your quick and detailed responses Peter.
And to be clear, these improvements came from the excellent reviews done by Philippe on the Allwinner H3 patch series
which I submitted earlier. Since that series is quite big and will take more time to complete, I thought it would be nice
to take a few of those improvements and meanwhile apply them to the other similar boards as well.
Regards,
Niek
