Linux patch for EDP9307A for Linux 2.6.35 kernel


Hi,
I am using EDP9307A controller from Cirrus Logic.
The reference board for EP9307A supports Linux 2.6.20.4.

HOW CAN I GET LINUX PATCH FOR EDP93XX FOR latest Linux kernel say 2.6.35, so that I can start using latest kernel on that same Hardware.
Thanks
Niraj.

I found the patch for you by searching "Cirrus Logic kernel.org" for Cirrus EP93xx SPI controller. You just need to get the latest kernel and patch it.

If you don't know how to patch the Linux kernel then google the following terms:
howto patch
man patch

Note: Before patching anything it's a good idea to review the patch being applied, what files it affects, how the path names in the patch are set up so you know what "-p" level to use. Don't just assume the command is patch -p0 because this could cause problems with patching.
