From: Linus Walleij linus.walleij@linaro.org
commit 586b2a4befad88cd87b372a1cea01e58c6811ea9 upstream.
The EB MP board probably has a character LCD but the board manual does not really state which IRQ it has assigned to this device. The invalid assignment was a mistake by me during submission of the DTSI where I was looking for the reference, didn't find it and didn't fill it in.
Delete this for now: it can probably be fixed but that requires access to the actual board for some trial-and-error experiments.
