Andrew, All,

First of all, thank you for taking care of this update. It's good to
have someone else looking at those ;-)

I'm ok moving things to freescale-imx, I think it makes it easier for
people looking at i.MX-specific packages instead of browsing through
both hardware handling packages and multimedia libraries.
However I guess Thomas and/or Peter will have ack this change.

As for changing the 'freescale-imx' name, I agree this will need to
happen but there's no rush in my opinion. Especially since the Yocto
layer is still called meta-*fsl*-arm.

I will comment on each individual patch above but I have a couple of questions:
- Why isn't there the kernel-module-imx-gpu-viv update? It is very
important to keep it in line with imx-gpu-viv.
- What about imx-kobs?
- Can you share your testing setup (platform name + defconfig)?

Regards,
Gary
