Nice. Just for curiosity, what clock and frequency does it select on
your board? It should be listed when the driver is loaded.

You mean like in the i2c-mpc driver:

http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.32/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c#L585

No problem, if I handle the regs property inside the mpc5121-specific
function. The #ifdef's are for *space saving*. If nobody else than me
cares, I will remove them.

I was thinking about that as well but mpc5xxx.h seems not (yet) to be a
popular place to store mpc5xxx related definitions.

OK.

Do we have rev1 support in the mainline kernel? I also understood that
there are only a few devel boards out there with v1 CPUs. If necessary,
this could be fixed later on demand. But it should be documented, e.g.
in the KConfig and dts bindings doc, of course.

Did you have a chance to test bus-off recovery? I just realized one
issue if the device is stopped while in bus-off.

Will come up with a v2 patch soon...

Thanks,

Wolfgang.
