From: Mark Rutland Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2016 16:34:50 +0000 (+0100) Subject: ARM: dts: explicitly mark skeleton.dtsi as deprecated X-Git-Tag: v4.9-rc1~76^2~23 X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9c0da3cc61f1;p=karo-tx-linux.git ARM: dts: explicitly mark skeleton.dtsi as deprecated As noted in commit 3ebee5a2e141496b ("arm64: dts: kill skeleton.dtsi"), there are a number of problems with skeleton.dtsi, and it would be prefereable to remove it entirely. As there are a large number of existing users, fixing these up will take a while. This patch adds a note to arm's skeleton.dtsi noting that this is the case, to make this more obvious and hopefully minimize new uptake of skeleton.dtsi in the mean time.
