It depends on whether Linus un-declares his current suspensio nof
ARM based work. The machine updtaes should go via the samsung tree
but whether to send the driver that was is another matter (I prefer
to have drivers go via the driver's tree to avoid clashes in
Makefile and Kconfig).

PS, what's your policy on -rc inclusion of completely new code
such as this?
