Which tree is this based on? Is this scheduled for 2.6.37 or .38?

Since the problem affects 2.6.37-rc I tried it on top of 2.6.37-rc6.

First there were patch rejects in two sub-archs, but they were easily
fixed.

On n2100 (plat-iop) a missing #include <asm/sched_clock.h> in
plat-iop/time.c caused a compile error. With that added the kernel
built w/o warnings but hung immediately after being decompressed.

On mach-ixp4xx the kernel built and booted fine, and the interactivity
problems were gone.
