Works. Use "Insert file..." or external editor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gmail (Web GUI)

If you just have to use Gmail to send patches, it CAN be made to work. It
requires a bit of external help, though.

The first problem is that Gmail converts tabs to spaces. This will
totally break your patches. To prevent this, you have to use a different
editor. There is a firefox extension called "ViewSourceWith"
(https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/394) which allows you to
edit any text box in the editor of your choice. Configure it to launch
your favorite editor. When you want to send a patch, use this technique.
Once you have crafted your messsage + patch, save and exit the editor,
which should reload the Gmail edit box. GMAIL WILL PRESERVE THE TABS.
Hoorah. Apparently you can cut-n-paste literal tabs, but Gmail will
convert those to spaces upon sending!

The second problem is that Gmail converts tabs to spaces on replies. If
you reply to a patch, don't expect to be able to apply it as a patch.

The last problem is that Gmail will base64-encode any message that has a
non-ASCII character. That includes things like European names. Be aware.

Gmail is not convenient for lkml patches, but CAN be made to work.

What: old tuner-3036 i2c driver
When: 2.6.28
Why: This driver is for VERY old i2c-over-parallel port teletext receiver
boxes. Rather then spending effort on converting this driver to V4L2,
and since it is extremely unlikely that anyone still uses one of these
devices, it was decided to drop it.

What: V4L2 dpc7146 driver
When: 2.6.28
Why: Old driver for the dpc7146 demonstration board that is no longer
relevant. The last time this was tested on actual hardware was
probably around 2002. Since this is a driver for a demonstration
board the decision was made to remove it rather than spending a
lot of effort continually updating this driver to stay in sync
with the latest internal V4L2 or I2C API.

The Freescale DIU is a LCD controller, with proper hardware, it can also
drive DVI monitors.

Required properties:
- compatible : should be "fsl-diu".
- reg : should contain at least address and length of the DIU register
set.
- Interrupts : one DIU interrupt should be describe here.

Example (MPC8610HPCD)

compatible = "fsl,diu";
reg = <0x2c000 100>;
interrupts = <72 2>;
interrupt-parent = <&mpic>;

s) Freescale on board FPGA

This is the memory-mapped registers for on board FPGA.

Required properities:
- compatible : should be "fsl,fpga-pixis".
- reg : should contain the address and the lenght of the FPPGA register
set.

Example (MPC8610HPCD)
board-control@e8000000 {
