Sorry I didn't get back to you on this any more. As you may have noticed,
Linus merged a large number of patches through my tree today and yours were
not a part of that.
It's too late for 3.2 now, but everything looks good for 3.3. I'll wait for
Jamie's patches to get stable first and then put your code into the arm-soc
tree.
There are other problems with the process in your series: you should never
cherry-pick a kernel from another branch if you depend on them. Instead,
make sure that the patches are queued up for the next merge window and not
changing any more (they are now obviously, as Linus merged them).
