So where did the function go in there ? I don't see any __weak anything.

Well, that should be fixed so that they probe from DT, just like any
other driver. I'm not fond of adding stuff to arch/arm/ ...

Right, which should be moved to drivers too and which should use DT.

Yes, can you add it to your list once we flesh out this patchset ?
