From 302466d07fe8f10ff2ad059dc5c40ac37935fda9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Glass Date: Sat, 5 Aug 2017 15:45:53 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] dm: Add migration plan for CONFIG_BLK The CONFIG_BLK conversion involves quite invasive changes in the U-Boot code, with #ifdefs and different code paths. We should try to move over to this soon so we can drop the old code. Set a deadline of 9 months for this work, rounded up to the next release.
