I guess my poor wording may have gotten me in trouble. I am getting
ready to repost this patch, but I want to ensure I am getting it as
right as possible.
I think I should reword the commit message to indicate we are removing
the Documentation/.../fsl-flexcan.txt file which has essentially become
empty and change the p1010si.dtsi file's can nodes to "fsl,p1010-flexcan",
"fsl,flexcan". Is that correct?
Thanks,
Robin
